I had an open RNY on June 7th and have a couple of questions..

OK, my questions are for those of you who are a while out and have tried different foods. First off, why are we not supposed to have cereal with milk? On my diet sheet I see that I am allowed 2 ounces of certain cereals but then it says in bold to not add milk. Is this the same as not drinking during a meal? If one didn't drink the milk left after the cereal would he or she really be ingesting too much liquid? Just wondering. Also, what is the current consensus on pasta? That seems to be one of the few foods that I can consistently rely on going down and staying put with no problems. I recently heard from a friend that I shouldn't really be eating pasta however. I always make sure that I choose a pasta with protein and have been eating it for one meal a day for a couple of weeks now. I have lost 39 lbs. as of this morning so I don't think that it is hurting me but could I be wrong??
