6 month surgiversary
meatball1 replied to NothingUpMySleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You are doing great! I am only 5 feet tall and am out 7 months and lost 40pounds. But as you said. It's not high numbers but I was in a 16 -7 months ago and a loose 10 now. If I got down to an 8 I don't know how I will act. I never could sustain anything below a 10. -
I caught myself today going right to food when I was supper stressed . The good thing was ... There wasn't a lot of food in the house but in 90 minutes I had a protein shake 5 pretzels and a protein bar. It's really scary ...

Head hunger and bad habits are the worst. I have good days and bars days. Slow loss but it's ok . I don't deny myself anything . It's usually a couple of bites then I feel it unless it's ice cream. Then my stomach feels crappy after.

What kind of foods are you eating?
meatball1 replied to aNewLife14's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am 14 weeks out and I eat anything I want. As stated before 3 or 4 bites and I am good. It is awesome to not worry about food and exercise. Don't get me wrong. I log my protein. Protein is always first . Then liquids. And I am going to the gym to exercise, to strengthen my body. Not to lose weight. It is so amazing that I don't have to guilt myself out it a strange and wonderful thing. I wish that I had done this years ago. I am 55. -
