I drink it throughout the day. I cannot drink it all at once. What would you suggest for the "small meals"? I had a slice of turkey from the deli early. I felt very full. I can only take a few bites before feeling overly full Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Is it hard for anyone one month out or a little past that mark to eat? I have a few bites and it feels like a bowling ball dropped. I cannot even eat the recommended amount yet which should be 4-6 oz. Does anyone else experience this? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have been walking a lot more too. Can anyone suggest any thing that I'm doing wrong or suggest any energy drinks etc. to give me that extra pep in my step? I just feel like sleeping.

traceygirl replied to GinaCampbell's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Me too Gina. I thought to myself... Did I make the wrong decision. It is very hard at first. Heck it is still hard. I am 3 weeks post op. I went to my surgeons and I lost 20 lbs. that made it worth it! I cannot stand purees but I tell myself again it will be worth it. Health wise, confidence etc. This forum helps out a lot too!
