So my family is going out for pizza tonight I'm almost 3 weeks out would it be too early for me to eat the cheese toppings off a cheese pizza?

it depends on what eating plan ur surgoens has for you but if u are eating cheese now then it should be fine just take small bites and chew really well

The only plan they really set for me is as long as you can cut it with a plastic fork it's ok to eat

Is cheese on your food plan yet? Keep in mind that the cheese on a restaurant pizza is gonna be full fat cheese, not low fat.

And getting sick in restaurant bathrooms is no fun - it's happened to me a time or two.

I'd be nervous as early out as you are and as greasy as restaurant pizza can be. If you just absolutely "have" to eat some, I'd sponge off the grease as much as possible

I would just ask the waitress if the cook can make something you are able to eat. I wouldn't take a chance plus that is not something you want to continue eating in the long run. You are trying to start a new healthy phase of your life.

I've gone to restaurants and I just ask the waitress if I can have what I am able to eat. I explain I just had RNY surgery and they are very understanding.

How about asking for a small bowl of ricotta cheese with a little sauce on top....I think that would be an easy fix and it's yummy!

I am 3 months out and pizza is too fat for me. Every time I try, I feel pretty rough afterward.

i can eat it just fine, but I don't go crazy on the toppings and I blot it with a paper towel or napkin. But since it is full fat, I certainly don't do it very often, but the kids do love a trip to the pizza parlor, so I've gone along. Have fun!

THREE weeks is way too early to start on pizza even if you don't eat the crust. Sorry. Give your new pouch a break and take your food along if you have to go out. No one wants to deny their kids or DH food that they like but you have just gone through serious surgery to get healthy so don't go down that path again.
