How do you know youre full?
Carlotta1 replied to Halfpint1218's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I start coughing and sometimes get hiccups. If I pass the line..I regurgitate.. That does not necessarily mean I ate too much., but that my stomach did not handle the food well. I am 18 days post op and cannot do much soft foods. Mostly puréed for me now. -
I had surgery on dec 9 and still cannot eat soft foods.. Still do better on purée. If I try to eat soft.. I regurgitate it. So purée goes on for me.

Need help..........What did you do with all of your clothes that are to big!
Carlotta1 replied to Beach Lover's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Will give mine to the ladies who clean my home. They can use it for themselves, give it to their friends, or they can sell to make money, whatever they wish. Love to give things to the ladies who week end and week out come to my service to clean my house without ever complaining ...who r trustworthy and dependable. Pay it forward is my motto. -
We won't have to ever worry about this giant elephant called fat again. So I would love for Jesus to come back...soon.

Hubby and I usually share.. However, the hospital gave me a card requesting the restaurant to all me to order on child's menu. Due to health reasons.

I should be on soft foods.. However, purée is what I can have at this moment.. Otherwise I find myself throwing up the food I just ate cause it gets stuck in my throat. Guess everyone is different for the different stages.

Sever Nausea after Sleeve... Suggestions needed
Carlotta1 replied to shirlyn's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Try peppermint oil...or suck on a sugar free peppermint Sunday for a few seconds. That helped me. -
Don't they make low cal drink now...? Fake a nice drink. It is not the liquor ..it is meeting and greeting. Don't give the power to alcohol. It is not worth it. The purpose of the evening is to socialize with people.

Carlotta1 replied to onedaycloser's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

6 days post op and I'm hungry
Carlotta1 replied to Redwillow13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was hungry about the sand time as u..day 6. It only lasted one day.. I wanted a hot meal..it was an excruciating day k4 me.. Regrets, mourning and feeling overwhelmed as to what I did to my body. But happy it went away. I think my mind was struggling .. Not real hunger. What I did was have shakes more often that day.. But less ounces. I will get Betty. Yes. Like others mentioned.. Acid can cause this also. -
Yes I did this twice ..with popcorn and another food item, only one bite. Once I did this..I was not craving the food after . How strange. I guess the power of the food was greater than the taste. Food lost out. I did not go any further

3 months out 251 to 201
Carlotta1 replied to symoned29's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Go girl.. U look amazing. -
Hi dec sleevers. Am 14 days out. Feeling pretty good. Having trouble with puréed foods at time.s. But everything's else is great. Had terrible acid in my throat and stomach yesterday.. But it went away. Funny how i can tolerate some foods and some not.. Even though they r pureed. Lost 15 pounds since surgery. Which I am happy about. In the weeks/ months to come, I rather lose slower than too fast.feel that I can make lasting lifestyle changes that way. Hope all the dec sleevers who had the surgery are doing good. For those who will be having surgery in the remainder of dec 2013 ..don't be fearful..all will work out.

Before and After at a Month and a Half
Carlotta1 replied to Kyrie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You look so cute. Keep up the good work. The shirt certainly does not look tight to me. Maybe u are used to wearing very loose clothing thinking that us could hide some of the fluff . Now that u are on your way to a smaller body..don't be afraid to wear fitter clothing. It will make u look slimmer and your weight loss will be evident.. You are your way to a healthier and energetic person. !!!!! -
I see a lot of "What We are Doing BAD this Holiday Season". What are you doing GOOD?
Carlotta1 replied to LipstickLady's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Good for u lipstick lady..engage In life rather than food stuff. Sounds like a great life style change. I am only 14 days out and I can tell food is certainly not a priority this year. I will have food bought in from a restaurant..so no cooking. No obsessing what to cook, and concentrating on games, watching good movies, etc. this year. I have two grand kids and since I have started this journey.. I am much more aware of what I feed them. You are doing a great service to your family. You r a success in more ways than one. !!! -
Just bought pb2 for the first. But I don't know what to do with it. I just love peanut butter.

Look so good.and I love your smile this season. U did great. Happy holidays.
