I ate shrimp and pizza topping at about six weeks. I also ate pork,chicken and even though I wasn't supposed to beef at about nine weeks. I started very small with a tiny bite and waited till the next day and tried several very small bites before I ate any larger amounts. You will find some things do not agree with the pouch and some things do. Hamburger upset me the first few trys but I was able to eat steak.Everything was chopped up and chewed really well. Shrimp I love but it gives me gas now. Beef is the only thing I have cheated on. You really need to wait six months for it but it was my favorite food and I had to try. I am three months out and it feels like its been forever. I have days I do not want to eat anything and days I want everything. Its mostly in my mind because it takes a while for the pouch to say I am hungry and I do not think my has yet.
I still refer to my book Dr H gave me. I know other doctors do not require the same things and some people eat right away . For our long term health its better to careful.
When you stop and think about it it is really only a short time you have to give up certain foods. You can eat most things once you are healed and the others you can modify so you can have them. There are good places on the board to get recipes and ideas.
The whole idea is to make sure you get your protein in first and if there is room in the pouch veggies and then later carbs. The goal is to work up to 1000 calories. With a one ounce pouch that is hard. You want your nutrion first. Gotta stay healthy and try and keep your hair but you still want the weight to fall off. I have eaten some bread and pasta but very little and even the small amount I eat may be why I am losing slow. Hang in there it does get better.

the thing about pasta and bread and anything that is white is that it turns into sugar...which your body doesnt need....and it will slow down your weight loss for sure...
Dr. H. says that when you eat sugar that it stops the weight loss and had to start all over . i have heard that when i was doing the Atkins diet all the time too. ...before surgery.

Misty.....Unless im mistaken and frankly I dont think that I am....we more than likely seen the same "NUT" .
Now I can say this....and I have my binder right in front of me....because like Susie I do refer to it alot......The stage that your in should be softs...pureed foods and also there is NOTHING in this binder that (by the way the NUT went over with us on PREOP day) says anything about eatting PASTA AND BREAD! In fact the last page of the nutrition section has DONT'S for us to not eat.....and ya know what.....yep you guess it....BREAD, PASTA'S ARE ON THAT LIST!
Also....and Dr H patients by all means chime in at anytime.....He has told us that we should be on what he considers.....THE NO WHITE DIET!!! That mean pasta, bread, rice and so on......
I really think that you should call your NUT and confirm what your telling us.....IM SURE that she or he will correct you and this way you dont think that were all LIEING to you.....
