Tell me about your restrictions
mickally replied to ErinMarie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have to keep myself in check because I tend to eat to fast, Then I eat to much and get a overstuffed feeling. I can eat most things but I agree with the poster that said just because you can doesn't mean you should. -

To the filthy liars who say cravings go away
mickally replied to KittyChick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes! This is so true. I think about sweets and crave them all the time. I wonder if it will ever stop and if I indulge it's 100 times worse. I'm also hungry all the time. I thought all this would stop once I had my sleeve but sadly no. I'm not one of the lucky ones. -
I really enjoy monk fruit it's all natural with very little after taste just go easy on it because it is very sweet.

Update & Slow Wt. Loss Prespective
mickally replied to bigloser2014's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congratulations on your weight loss and your positive attitude. I too have been a slow loser however as long as it's moving down I'm happy. I believe attitude is everything even when it's tough. -

Need help finding protein shakes/powder! Recommendations?
mickally replied to MorganO87's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everything I liked before surgery i couldn't choke down after. I had all these protein powders and couldn't drink them, Then I tried muscle milk premixed. I liked it well enough low sugar 20 grams protein. After a while on that I switched to premier protein premixed 30 grams protein. I also used ungery chicken broth mixed it up first then mixed in soups. Make sure you mix it exactly the temp it says or it gets weird. The broth was a life saver after surgery. Moral of the story don't stock up to much because your pallet changes. -

Need Help
mickally replied to Dixie Michelle Shepherd's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hang in there and just think one sip at a time. It's daunting at first but it gets easier. -
My love for food---Hopeing it changes!
mickally replied to Time4Kindness's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I still love food and think about food a lot, however it is easier to just have a little or just walk away. I also found recently while on a road trip that I didn't want to stop and eat all the time which was nice. Sometimes when I'm hungry and thinking about all the food I want I eat something small like a cheese stick and then I am satisfied. It really is amazing. -
I'm sorry to hear that you are having such a bad time. I do not have a bypass so I can't offer any advice but my thoughts are with you that all goes well and that you can get this pain under control.
-
I have the sleeve and I have dumping syndrome from time to time. It's no fun. I hope you feel better soon.
-
Congratulations! My prayers are with you.

Unfortunately you do get the slime with the sleeve and it's no fun. However that being said it doesn't happen to me very often.
-
Your not alone. You can do this. The craziness gets better just hang in there it's so worth it.
