  1. 1. What if any bread items can you eat without any discomfort

    • None-tried it once will never try it again
    • Little-tried a little not horrible but uncomfortable
    • OK-can eat bread and/or bread products with few problems
    • As much as I want-Never had a problem with bread with the band

Depending on how I eat the bread and when I eat it. First of all, I only eat Wheat now, it 2 slices and only 100 calories for both slices.

Now, if I try to eat the bread without toasting it, I have problems from "HELL". It gets stuck, I HURT, I cry, and then sometimes, it comes right back up.

If I toast it, its not as bad. Sometimes it gets stuck but the pain isn't near as bad or lasts as long as untoasted bread.

I have found that if I put a little bit of s/f jam or preserves on it, and take VERY VERY VERY SMALL BITES, it goes down easily and I have no problems.

I don't eat bread often maybe once a week or once every couple weeks. I have to really be in the mood for it in order to eat it.

I don't eat bread. Any kind of yeast bread gets stuck, buscuits and quick breads I can eat in very, very small amounts Croutons and crackers work better. I find that by the time I eat my Protein and veggies, there isn't room for bread. When I buy a burger I take both Buns off and eat with a fork.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
