corn
Being "able" to and it being something you SHOULD do are two different things. With sleeves, we are "able" to eat pretty much anything. But that is how we got fat in the first place. Corn is a high-sugar carb with very little nutritional value. Take it from someone almost three years out -- don't eat stuff like that! For long-term success, because we have such limited capacity, we would do well to choose food for its nutritional value.
I try my best to eat protein first, (mostly) green veggies next, and a few complex carbs if room. On occasion, I eat something else. When I slide back into the junk carbs and sugar, the cravings start back, and they are the devil to fight. That's how I ended up 20 pounds over goal ... which I had reached by about a year out. Gained those 20 pounds back when high-sugar, low-nutrition food crept back in my diet. Now I'm fighting tooth and nail to get those pounds back off.
Don't eat that corn :-)
