Why do you regret it?

Thank you. It's a struggle for sure.

I get full but my head says keep eating... Like I just can't get enough! I sure will be glad when I'm off restrictions but this is just depressive! I feel like I can't get enough food to feel better and I know that was my problem that hot me in trouble in the first place!

Having issues with wanting to eat more than the sleeve will allow. Anyone else experience this? If you did, what did you do to help you get through it?

Maybe you are drinking too much too fast. Try slowing down...

Just food for thought... If you have precancerous ulcers they could be in your stomach and if you bypass your stomach there's no way to do a scope to make sure you don't have anything in there nor will you ever get any Cancer there. I would seriously consider what she is saying and talk about it with all of your doctors.

Sleeved the 19th and haven't had anything yet. I haven't felt anything. No bloating or discomfort, just nothing. Not sure if I should be concerned or let it happen when it happens.

Congrats on surgery day, I will pray you have a speedy recovery! God Bless. Thanks so much!

I have hyperhidrosis which is excess sweating so I'm more aware of it and always sweet more than the average person. It sucks. I've let it control so much of my life. I'm kinda hoping I'll be like a lot if the people and be chilly after surgery. I'd like to see how the other side lives You are going to be in for a big surprise! Like the few of you that have expressed the hatred of sweating, I feel every word you speak of,lol. I had my surgery on April 13, 2015, and Ican tell you I don't feel hot like I use to and its surprising to me, I want to embrace it but afraid the heat will come back, ha ha ha.I thank you all for the words of encouragement to workout, to find something that you like to do. I need to get started on a regular regimen. GLA I sure hope it is that way for me!!!!!! Surgery is tomorrow for me... Eeek!!

I would just like to pose this question... Why would you feel the need to drink so soon after surgery while your stomach is still healing? Why would you take a chance after coming this far to mess things up and possibly hurt yourself? Even though there may not be evidence that it will hurt you, why would you chance it? You could wait at least a couple months out until your stomach was fully healed. Who knows what kind of affect alcohol has not only on your new stomach but your other organs because the digestion in your stomach is now different. Those are just some of the questions I would ask. Just because you can, doesn't mean it's good for you. If you need to drink that badly that you can't wait until your stomach is fully healed then I think there may be a problem.

I was feeling sorry for myself too! Don't worry! You can still eat some of it just a ton less than before! And other things you like try to find healthier versions! Make it a game!

I dunno if one week is realistic. I think if you don't move much but I think maybe you'd want to give yourself a week and a half.

Good luck! It's exciting to watch everyone progress!

I'm new to this app but there is a post call may sleevers where are you and there is a couple of people on there that started a secret Facebook group. Lessofjess is one of the ladies and if you message her your Email and surgery date she will invite you. Pre-op is killer. I keep counting the days down... It's soooo hard.

I hear ya! Same for me. Now I'm dealing with my pre-period wanting to eat everything in sight... Ugh! We will get there!
