Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    |  too much of a good thing do you find that when a certain food "works" you eat it until you cant stand it anymore? i think i am doing this with salad. i was never really a fan of salad, but for some reason it just tastes SO GOOD now. of course i have chicken with it or sometimes a spoonful or two fo tuna, but WOW i love salad. i could eat it at all 3 meals per day. i guess my question is, i should be using this as a "filler" right" not as the meal itself? because salad is essentially worthless to us? is lettuce a "free food"? by that i mean, can i eat as much as i can stand of it or should it be meaured as well? all thoughts/ opinions wlecome!!

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | From what I was told Kenya from my NUT that it is a filler and not the meal. My NUT just told me that if I am going to eat salads and nothing else to make sure I add some type of meat to it. So I guess you are doing okay with it. I understand about finding something you really like and then eating and eating it. I did that with mashed potatoes. Really wasn't into it at first but once they told me I could have some it became my best friend and now I don't want to look at another potato....lol

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I did this with yogurt, and now I wont even look at it in the grocery store! But I would think that if you are getting your protein in with the salads then why not??

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I Eat Salad Like Its Going Out Of Syle And Still Not Sick Of It. I Add Alot Of Protein Items To It. I Add Chicken And Cheese And Somtimes A Few Nuts To Make One Intersting Salad Like You Get In Restaurants. As Long You Add Your Protein To It Then It Shouldnt Be A Problem.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I want a salad so bad, but every time I try to eat it, it does not sit well. But as for getting stuck on stuff that works - I ate tuna like every day for months and cottage cheese. It is so hard to eat either now.

| Kenya, I crave salads too. I eat them all the time, but I just make sure that I add some protein to it, like you're doing.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I have been stuck on protein pudding since 1 month out - I haven't had any raw veggies or salad since surgery until this week - I had a bite of tomato without any skin. I am hoping to be cleared for salad in a week - they told us 4-6 months out before trying it but I haven't had any problems with any food but I see the surgeon on the 22nd and I look forward to a nice salad or at least a bite lol.
