Sometimes the frustration, for me, comes from people posting the very thoughts I'm struggling with. -
Stalled since April 1... God awful April Fools joke

Your body is wired to freak out at such a low caloric intake and hold onto everything it can for self preservation. It's biology... Or chemistry. Or both. Ride the wave. Switch things up. Track your intake. Made sure you're fueling yourself well. Btw, huge difference in your fave already 4 weeks out. Celebrate you NSV's. -
Recovery questions
AmandaRaeLeo replied to missyjoy2078's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was off pain meds completely the 2nd day. My stomach did feel overworked. My postop diet is very conservative. 10 days Clear Liquids. 10 days full liquids. 10 or more days soft/blended foods. Then regular good. High protein/low carb. Sip sip sip. -
Full liquid Stage

I'm gonna have to say that the almond milk is a better bet overall regarding calories, fat and carbs. As soon as I went from Clear liquids to full liquids I've traded Water for almond milk in my Protein shakes. Since I blend with ice I'm not even getting a full serving. -
Special K cracker/chips are good with hummus.

AmandaRaeLeo replied to AshleySkinnyer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Have you tried eggbeaters? I started my soft/blended foods today and my eggbeaters were an easy to consume Breakfast. Filled up fast tho. -

Yeah. I listened to my sleeve and I stopped and let my head catch up to my mouth/stomachI realized I was indeed satisfied. Not full/uncomfortable. Satisfied.

I disagree with your analogy. Chances are with the lottery you're going to lose. Statistically there are many more successes than failures with WLS. Period. -
Italian ice is in the ice cream and frozen treat section in my grocery stores. I love it. I had scrambled eggbeaters. I made 1/2 cup and it was too much. I started hiccuping and stopped.

I was tempted to continue but instead allowed my spoiled dogs reap the benefits of my limited space.

Dr Garcia SPIDER TECHNIQUE

Please do your research
AmandaRaeLeo replied to Michele in NY's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Often we like to go with what is trending. The spider technique. I think that is why there are ppl who are regretting the surgery because they miss eating excessively. This surgery has become trendy. -

Please note that most, but not all, of the posted regrets are about not being able to eat whatever/whenever which is why we have the surgery to begin with. -
Help! Severe pain!
AmandaRaeLeo replied to bradsgirl007's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Gall bladder pain hurt worse than labor. And it only got worse. I'd suggest seeing a doc for an ultrasound. -
How long was your surgery?
AmandaRaeLeo replied to Bmordan's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine was about 2 hours and my mom was with me in Mexicali.
