I am a year out in 2 weeks. I have lost 110 lbs roughly. My doctor says I have about 15 more months of weightless ahead. I can't seem though to get past 300! I keep fluctuating from 304-308. Two days ago I was 304 this morning I am 308. I do admit my eating has Been a little off..but not terrible. Has anyone experienced this at all? It's making me depressed.

Has anyone tried Bariatric choice.com? If so what did you find good and not so much? I would like to try some of their foods but want to see whos tried them before i spend money. I think these meals would be so easy for me to put in my body what it needs.

weird feeling in my stomach when I eat mostly anything
ThurstT4life posted a topic in Food and Nutrition
Does anyone else get a weird feeling in their stomach after they eat or during? Its not a pain..it makes me wanna stop eating. It doesnt happen when I drink only when I eat and its mostly everything! Its kind of frustrating because I did not expect so many things to change...Does anyone else go through this ...also I am 2 months post op and i have had this feeling for about 2 weeks now -
Has anyone tried Bariatrichoice.com?
ThurstT4life replied to ThurstT4life's topic in Food and Nutrition
That would be great. I was looking into some soups bars and snacks. I really didnt want to spend money on them unless i can eat them. I am post op and think it would be easier to use pre packaged meals at times -

I eat through out the day...wake up to a protein shake...breakfast a boiled egg and a small piece of meat...lunch tuna or crab salad..dinner chunks of chicken after dinner a few chunks of chicken.....its 11:00 and i had a few more chunks of chicken (3 small cubes) but i dont know if i am hungry or if its because i am used to eating at night or its just a feeling of an empty stomach and it feels weird....I dont want to fail! I am not exercising yet because i feel i am just still too heavy my knees and foot hurt (maybe thats just an excuse) I was sleeved the 19th of October...so I am about 6 weeks out. Does or has anyone gone through this and if so what do you do...i am gonna talk to my doc ...i just dont wanna fail....

26 Days Out, And Can't Eat Much Food At A Time, And Not Much Of An Appetite Either!
ThurstT4life commented on NewBeginningsForMe2012's blog entry in Kathy Tyler's Blog
Dont be scared everyone is different. I myself had no complications after surgery. No pain , just a few days of feeling nauseous..but htats about it. I didnt even need any of the pain meds I was given. You will be fine and the things you go through or what i have encountered were small things and not horrible. But i am finding out 6 weekds post op that your mind and body have got to be on the same page. this is a big adjustment from your past eating habits etc. but at the end of the day i know it will be worth the ride. I pray you do okay and its a new beginning for you as for all of us that need this tool to be healthy. -
When I am hungry I grab a protein shake! I feel the same way and I am 6 weeks post op. Its hard! It is not easy ...its so hard for me cause i have 4 kids and constantly cook all the good stuff but its not easy! Hang in there. I miss sandwiches too! I am Italian so i miss my bread but it is mind over matter ..i feel the same way you are not alone!

I too find it very hard to take more than 10 minutes to eat so little no matter how hard i try and no matter how good i chew. I also get that same feeling in my throat. I dont see how I can stretch the time out when i am eating so little. I am a month out.

I am still full from the little bit I ate today! I would have had two or more servings I had a tiny tiny tea cup saucer and I am still full! I LOVE IT! I was able to ENJOY the food as well!

Loving My Sleeve This Tahnksgiving!
ThurstT4life replied to ThurstT4life's topic in Food and Nutrition
I have lost 24 lbs. since surgury! I was expecting it to melt off. I went to my post op month visit yesterday and the doc said I am doing fine.I am right where I am supposed to be. I was depressed because i thought it was going to be faster. 20 LBS a month though is great. I also did that without walking or exercising. I am much more mobile but am still a bit heavy for the daily routine. I have been my own encouragement...everybody is different. I plan to go to a support group next week as well. -
