Patrizia, If you are eating high protein foods, staying away from high fat foods, drinking plenty of water then you are problably fine. Plus don't forget to keep on exercizing. I wish I could give you better help concerning the bloating. Hopefully someone can give better help. I eat most of the time egg substitutes, lean ham, corn tortilla and skim milk afterwards. Grill chicken or tuna sanwich with nonfat mayo for lunch. Bean soup or black bean soup with nonfat cheese. If I have beef I will buy lean meat and use the George Foreman grill machine. Add some spinach or broc. to the meal. I love adding hot chili to my meals. In between I will have fruit as a snack. I still eat food that is fat or is high in surgar sometimes. The major difference is that I will have small portions of it. Are you trying to lose more weight? You look awesome in those pictures you have shared. Take care and continue letting us know how you are doing.

There are plenty of times where I feel that I can eat too much, but then I have plenty of moments too where I'll take 3-4 bites and be stuffed. Also remember, we're nearly 2 years post op and will be able to eat more than we could a year ago. As long as you're not consistantly overeating or munching through out the day...you'll be fine!

You Look Mahvelous Dahling I usually have some oatmeal about 930am..snack on a few pretzels abt 1130am lunch is somewhere around 1230 and I have a Chicken breast grilled, or a "box of food" from lean cuisine..afternoon is a banana with peanut butter. Supper is about 5pm and I can usually eat anything but pork and beef. So I concentrate on Protein 1st and then salads or veggies. Quantites are still minimal, however my whole life doesn't revolve around food anymore..and I have to make myself eat. Also have to make myself drink my water.. easier in the summer than winter I can't eat beef, pork milk products, pickles taste nasty and i stay away from sweets, unless i want a good cleaning out!!! hahahah if i need something sweet theres alot out there made with Splenda and that satisfies me. Hope that helps OH yeah I could live on brown beans and do eat a lot of those. Renee
