New Here! Just Want Wanted Your Thoughts!
crazycravings replied to Piplula's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You are NOT alone- I am 4 weeks out and this crosses my mind daily lol -
Give yourself some more time.....there is no sense in regret because you cannot go back. It will get better, I am 4 weeks out and I am very tired- I just started my b12 supplements but I can barely make it thru the days....BUT better days are ahead;) I was fatigued all the time before so the difference is I am 25 lbs lighter.

How Nauseas Were You The First 2 Weeks?
crazycravings replied to AngieG0410's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everyone is def different and you can't base your expectations on others experiences. I had extreme gas pain for a week and I ate gas x like candy!! But it is a small price to pay for not having to pour myself into my clothes! -

I was extremely nauseous but didn't vomit- just felt terrible for two weeks- on my third week now and still get that feeling when I eat too fast. -

How Hungry Are You?
crazycravings replied to Carly's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well I can assure u I am hungry- I am only 6 days out so don't ask me what kind I hunger it is but I'm guessing the addiction kind cause I was contemplating making brownie batter as a full liquid and then I sai no way drank a half a cup of pickle juice and was fine. So I equate it to when I used to use drugs in my early adulthood- it is a sickness in my mind and I never fully understood how my addiction was controlling me until I had the sleeve. I have had many "aha" moments as they say. I don't know what to do about it tho- I pray and try to just keep busy but man am I craving food- I will say today is better than yesterday and my lord is gonna help me thru this. I want to be healthy. I will be healthy. My body is coming along and I will find a way for my brain to make it there also;) -
Ok, i thought one of the pros of the sleeve was the hunger being gone!!! Not so, is it because i am on only liquids?

I Am Crazy Hungry!
crazycravings replied to crazycravings's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Serious??? Well it def helped!! This morning tho I have this heaviness in my chest every time I breathe- I just realized I have been drinking water from a straw in my cup tho- u think any correlation there? I remember at the hospital they said no straws while I was in the hospital-- my kids are eating pizza in my suburban right now an I am whping the drool off my phone so sorry if there are some major typos:( lol -

I Am Crazy Hungry!
crazycravings replied to crazycravings's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks all of you!! I was feeling like I'm gonna feel the same as before the surgery!!!! I was told I had an overabundance of ghrelin but I thought it would be gone as soon as the glands were removed!! So glad I found this site, that totally makes sense about it taking awhile to completely leave your system.....kinda like when u geld a colt, testosterone actually surges even tho the "glands" have been removed lol. I have horses if u couldn't tell lol. I do have crazy cravings to that I never had before but before if I wanted it I ate it.......big change for me now lol. weird as it may seem, if I drink a little dill pickle juice it stops my cravings....... -
