Can you eat pasta?

Some days yes, some days no.

I got quite sick at lunch yesterday (catered meal of chicken/veggie pasta).  It was a bad choice for me -- and I let 'peer pressure' convince me that I could eat it carefully.

I spent the next 2 hours of my business meeting leaving to go to the bathroom to upchuck.
Not pleasant.

From now on -- I will be skipping the pasta.

I can still eat pasta, but I've never really been a big pasta eater, so I don't eat that much of it.  When I do order something that comes with pasta, I generally just eat a few bites of the pasta, and focus on eating the meat and my salad/veggies. It's not because I have trouble with pasta, I just would prefer to eat the other things.

I'm 5 years out and although I'm having issues with my band now...I am able to eat pasta as long as it isn't spaghetti or long pasta meaning I can eat anything short like pene. I can't eat LoMein either. I hope this helps and I hope you are not trying to eat past yet but are asking for the future. Good Luck. Judy

 When I first tried, it did not sit well...
Sometimes I make mac and cheese for my son... I sneak in a fork of it... and  that is all...

It fills me up so much I would not be able to eat the good protein....

Rice too.... I tried it a few times and each time, my band was not happy....
