hi everyone,hope your all ok.i had my first weetabix today n i was very shocked that i could only eat half of it lol i would have eaten 3 b4 my opp so lets hope it stays the same n i cant eat to much crap like i did before

Oh god, thats bad, cos i started on weetabix on Monday, and i can manage a full one! I did have it very very water as had been advised but it went down a treat.
I wonder if i have just had a virtual gastric bypass by bodgeit and scarper!!!!

Yorkshire lass when i first went on sloppys i had one sloppy weetabix and could have eaten more! Wait till you only put a bit of milk on so it maintains its natural shape, 1 will fill you then... And pre op i'd have had 3 and a couple of slices of toast and then at 10ish i'd have been thinking about the chocolate machine

You'll be surprised at your portions when you go solid xx

Hi Julie,
thanks for that, i am normal (ish) you are right, before my op i would easily polish off 3 and then be hungry a couple of hours later too.

hi mona i can eat a full one as well and my head still says more even though my tummy says no

i can eat 1 & 1/2 weetabix but it is swimming in milk, i also had salmon , mash and mushy peas with cheese sauce for tea andit waslovely but i think i could of eaten more but it was really sloppy though, i have also have a couple of saefood sticks that i chewed really well with a babybell for protein and so far so good, but i have found out i cant eat custard it makes me mildly dump ....

Thanks Alannah.

I just screwed up making a milk jelly, I used the measuring jug on my newblender and read litres as pints! :silly: What a goon!

Oh well, maybe it'll taste like a milk shake? BUt I'm desperate for something savoury now.

 

[suesian]

try weight watchers mexican bean soup sieved its yummy

 

[alannah]

i know wot you been hun i felt the same but it does pass i used to make my savoury drink

 

[alannah]

at dinner time so it tastes like my dinner n thats how i got round it hun lol

 

[phatmomma]

Ladies why not have some melba toast with your cottage cheese? They are only thin and easily chewed and with something sloppy like cottage cheese i wouldnt have thought this would be a problem...

I am very lucky that i can eat bread, wraps, naan bread etc however i am trying to avoid this as this was my 'poison' pre op! I try to avoid carbs as much as i can

Also rice crackers are nice, you can get sweet or savoury ones and Rakusen 1% fat crackers aren't that chewy so a good alternative to bread

i dont think we can eat thoses just yet julie even tho i would love to ..lol as were only just 2 weeks post op .. but mind you i might give them a go and if they dont agree with me then i wont eat them again ..lol
