Hello, Mind came off after 3 weeks. Take Care

Hello Sleevers, I've been sleeved now for one year, I hit my goal weight six months after surgery. Here's my issue when I was wearing 18/22 I would look at the size 4/ 6 in the department store and say wow that's really tiny. Now that I wear a size 4/6 I look at my jeans and say wow these look pretty big to me, it's like in my mind if I'm wearing it...it's got to be huge or large not small or tiny. My therapist says this is normal my mind is still processing the new me and in time I will see what every one else sees. When I see individuals that I've not seen in a long time they say things like "Don't lose any more weight" or "Wow your so tiny" I've attached a picture of me in a pair of new jeans, this is my screen saver on my cellphone, my therapist believes this will help me train my mind to see the true me. My question, have any other sleevers had this issue? and how are you dealing with it? Take Care

Hello, I know how you feel the first few months I stayed constipated, after the sleeve I became lactose intolerant so I started drinking 3 glasses a milk a day and that got thinks moving. Now I drink boost everyday since it's not lactose free I get my Protein and I stay regular. You can also try, miralax or try eating Protein Bars that are high in Fiber. Hope this helps Take Care

Welcome! The main reason I told no one I was having surgery was because I did not want to hear that statement " You don't need this surgery" Remember you are doing this for yourself and no one else the insurance company would not have approved you if there was not need. Tell everyone, thanks for your concern, but your not in my shoes then smile and walk away. Take Care
