? What foods do you eat now that you should'nt or would'nt
I am wondering what foods do you find yourself eating now, that you would have never dreamed of putting in your mouth when you where 6 months out from surgery??
I am trying to put togethor a list of foods I want to stay away from since I have gained about 12lbs. I am just curious what others are eating or if I am the only bad one.

Bites here and there of desserts. I still stay under 10 grams of sugar at a time because I still dump, but I've learned that if I wait an hour then I can have another bite.... so, I can't have them in the house!!!
I think avoiding carbs and increasing your Protein is the only way to get those extra pounds off.

Pretty much everything I shouldn't be eating EVER. I'm a chip aholic - I have to keep them out of the house or I'll eat them ALL in a few days. Once I start on cookies Its hard to stop. I just don't have ANY of that stuff in the house.
I do pretty good staying away from simple carbs and try to limit complex ones (wheat breads/pastas) too.
Oh - alcohol. That's my biggest demon at the moment. Definitely like my evening toddy or two. Actually I eat pretty good - its my "get home and relax" time that does me in....
I've gained 7-8 lbs too. I'm working on getting them off..

I don't believe in good or bad food just good or bad choices ... so I eat everything, it's just some of it I eat hardly ever and in very small portions and other stuff I eat every day. LOL
Anyway, I'm with Roz and Jody - emphasize protein, avoid carbs and alcohol. That's what I do when I want to drop a pound or two.
ETA and water... drin****il you slosh!

Carbs esp simple ones,like chips and cookies. Even one is too many for me. I learned it the hard way at 6 months out and have spent months 7,8,9,10,11 getting back to status quo. I am trying to get back to not eating those things pretty much ever.
Though I lost some in those months,I yoyo'd more than in the first 6 months and I really don't like that. I would be closer to goal if I had avoided the cdarbs altogether.

mmm..im a very quick n easy dumper and yet I've been doing a lot of fat free and largely sugar free baking and having a slice or a few cookies here and there....
a lot of pasta ,usually dreamfields low carb or whole wheat but not always
a good amount of alcohol , usually " healthy " dry red wine but occasionally Frangelico a sweet Italian hazelnut liqueur in my coffee
what HAVen;t I been doing - eating healthy salads as much as I should because they take time to make ( and baking's easier ?)
having healthy one-person fresh veggie stir fries and imrpomptu soups when I get hungry rather than serious MEALS
drinking enough WATER not nearly by a LONG shot
