The Big No-No's



Recommended Posts

O.k... I want to know what everyone can not eat now (healthier foods) that you were completely able to eat before being banded but can't now, even if on your approved foods list.

I had japaneese last night (mom's b-day) and I was sooooo nausious 3 bites into it that I opted for the salad because I was so sick from it- immediatly.

Broccoli hates me, Steak hates me (no matter how tender) deli meats, Sausage (whether veggie or turkey) and carrots.

Mushrooms use to be one of my favorite items and now I don't care for them. I couldn't even tolerate them until just recently. I can't think of anything else. GB

Broccoli and chicken (unless it is totally super moist and cut very tiny). And I just came to that conclusion last night, after I ate both of those and I ended up violently ill. :)

Oh, and scrambled eggs. :D

I have not found one thing I cannot eat. I have never felt sick at all.

I am not so sure this is a good thing.

I have a hard time with sausage, any pork, and roast. No matter how tender or if there's a sauce added. Other than that the only thing I have problems with is any meat that has been reheated.

I have a really hard time with apples, carrots, a lot of bread and any type of thin noodle. I miss apples the most....love love them :thumbup:. I don't get sick I just can't get them down.

JillyPoo, have you tried baked apples? My friend cores them but leaves them whole, then stuffs the hollow part with nuts, raisins, a little brown sugar (could use Splenda brown sugar) and bakes them on a cookie sheet until they are fork-soft. They are delicious! A wonderful fall treat.

I eat a lot more applesauce nowadays than I used to. There are so many good flavored, no-sugar applesauces out there now. My favorite is blueberry.:thumbup:

SpideyMom~ thank you so much for the yummy yummy apple treat. I think I will get some apples at the store today and try it. Applesauce goes down funny too... maybe because it is so thick? Thanks again!! Have a great day

I hope you can eat them, Jill! They are so good when you break them open and that brown sugar -- oh, and cinnamon -- concoction oozes out. YUM. :thumbup:

mmmm, my mouth is watering...I'm going to give those apples a try. I don't have a problem with the apple itself, just the peel. I have a difficult time with meat too, even deli meat, but I usually do okay with canned meat.

Any kind of cooked or canned fruit, or fruit puree is really hard for me, I can only eat a very little. Fresh fruit is hard too, but I do still eat it daily.

there's nothing I really *cant* eat but many things I have to make myself eat - like fruit and salads because they are healthy that are much harder to eat.

I never get nauseous from things though, just blocked.

I avoid things like reheated leftover meat too - we had a leg of pork the other night with guests, there was loads left but I threw it out becuase I knew I'd never get it down.

I make my baked apples with Oats... Oats brownsugar, Cinnemon, some vanil. extract, rasins and chopped walnuts and melted butter (or marg.) to keep the mix together... and then spoon full the melted remnents over the apples when their done.

I found over the summer, melon was really hard to keep down (honeydew) Corn doesn't sit so hot with me either.

The band has changed several things for me. Some things do taste different, things that do not appeal to me will not go down and meats have to be moist. I also have a strange new thing with sense of smell. Some seasons that I injest linger within my nasal cavaties...until mid-morning the next day. I still eat too fast and pay a severe penalty for that! But, it's all working the right way.

I miss rice the most- white or brown, I can't eat rice at all! I love apples, but as mentioned above by someone else, I can still eat apples, but only if I peel them!

Even though my dr said I can eat corn tortillas, they don't always work out so well either. In order to eat them it requires way too much chewing, so I opt not to have them anymore.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
