Feeling full or what?
sweettea replied to marisarose's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor says, I eat to fast, I don't chew enough, and sometimes - because I eat to fast - I eat a bite or two to much. I get stomach aches, and sometime sick. I'm 2 1/2 years out. I'm getting better about it though. -
@@CANDI254 I get sick, but it's not the water. I eat to fast and don't chew enough.

NOW I remember why no liquids. You can basically wash the food away. No food. No nutrients.
-
You'll be glad you did it. Congratulation on the weight loss. BTW, I only sip water with meals and hardly any at all.
-
I didn't tell anyone but immediate family at first. BUT, if someone ask, I tell them. Makes no difference to me what they think. I did it for me, not them.
-
Someone actually said something to you? I do take sips of water with my food. Sips mind you. I'm 2 1/2 years out, I forgot why we aren't supposed to drink with our meals. Things seem to always get stuck going down.

A different kind of challenge
sweettea replied to gowalking's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
It sound like your getting back on track. Besides, I wouldn't obsess on 1 or 2 pounds. I weigh a pound or two more at night than I do in the morning. -

sweettea replied to KChelper's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Well, I did have pain. I didn't want company. AND my husband said I was crabby. BUT, it didn't last very long, a few days. Like kingdavid757 said, everybodies journey is different . Don't dwell to much on it. Good luck! -

Putting on cheer leading outfit and getting pom-poms! Go @threatrejo go! -
@Ivlpar Stuff happens. I see a lot of people picking vodka. I know when I was on Adkins, I drank diet coke and rum. Yes, yes, I know we aren't supposed to drink alcohol or drink carbonated beverages. But some of of us "chose" to imbibe in moderation. I can hardly drink. It hits me hard AND I get full. Only my opinion!

*shaking head* Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Everyone is on their own journey. Nothing is black and white.

They say the surgery removes the hunger hormone, is that feeling true? It did for me. I rarely ever get hungry. I have to remind myself to eat.

@@lachellove Of course you are worrying. It's major surgery. You have every right to worry. Stay strong. It's worth it. -
@@roxy79 Yes, and it progressed to where I couldn't stand up without fainting.
-
Ummmm.... No diet. After surgery most things I'm not supposed to eat, don't appeal to me. The problem I have is I'm not hungry. I basically force myself to eat.
-
You can do it! Kind of like a divorce, your losing part of yourself. So excited for you.
-
More water! I didn't drink enough and ended in hospital dehydrated.

You can do it! I'm wearing my cheerleader outfit, which I can wear now, waving my pom poms around. Yeah @@lachellove! -
Carb loading the day before a big hike
sweettea replied to hikergirl14's topic in Fitness & Exercise
@@hikergirl14 My son calls me linebacker - because I push through things and nothings stops me. He also calls me hippy for my views and the way I dress at times. -
What did your breast's do?
sweettea replied to meyouus's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I went from a 38 D to a 36 C. And no, they aren't perk . Husband says there fine, but he's being kind. I lay down they disappear. Ah well, I'm still glad I did it. -

sweettea replied to laguerr13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Plain and simple. I didn't like the idea of a port. Also, I thought with getting part of my stomach removed, I'd have an easier time losing weight.
