I like that approach too, lol. Yeah, I could see it becoming an issue if I allow it too often

I like that approach! Thanks!

Ugh, I always forget that... sorry. I was sleeved 12/21/16.

And ate four pieces of Valentines Day candy. And I am pissed. My stomach hurts and I wish I didn't do it. I am pmsing like a monster and I just really wanted them. I enjoyed every bite, but I am angry with myself now. But I'm over it and it won't happen again. My question is... I get that no one is perfect and we will make mistakes and slip up occasionally. How do you deal? Accept it and move on? Do I allow myself ONE piece of candy when the urge gets insane (for me, that only when I am pmsing) so I don't go crazy? I was sleeved 12/21/16

Thanks everyone. I kind of freaked out because it seemed like a lot of food at once. I'm going to go back to measuring.

I was sleeved 12/21/16. There have been a couple of times that I ate a bite or two too much and I had hiccups and felt pretty lousy. This time I felt ok, just very full

So, I woke up pretty hungry this morning and decided I wanted something different than my normal scrambled egg. I made a toasted fiber one English muffin, one scrambled egg and one slice of low fat cheese. I made a breakfast sandwich out of it. I cut it in half and planned on eating a half. Well, I ate the whole thing. I could have stoped at half but it was delicious and I ate the rest. I am super full now. I don't feel sick, but I am very full. Could I h e stretched my sleeve? I am normally so good at measuring things out and I feel like I screwed up!

I have no issues getting in 2oz I usually eat almost 4oz in a sitting and I am 4 weeks out. I can have 3oz of chicken salad and 1oz of green Beans for lunch or dinner. What the heck? I have been eating around 800 cals a day, and I feel hungry quite often. I go for my follow up this Thursday. I have lots of questions. I feel way off track than many of the people on here.

Well, Smooth Move Tea is NOT my friend.... I tried it for the first time last night before bed. Instead of smooth moves today, its more like spend your day in the bathroom. Ugh. Does this bathroom issue ever resolve?! It's either days without or all freaking day long. I'm only 3 weeks post op. Is there a light at the end of the tunnel???

So, I shoveled. I couldn't help it. We have a foot of freaking snow. I only did the walkway, and I was totally fine doing it. I had no pain, no problems... but now my stomach is killing me. My abs feel very crampy and I'm bit nauseous. I was sleeved 12/21, and I know we are supposed to not do anything ab involved for 6 weeks... but I really didn't think I was straining myself. Not sure what to do now or what to look for. How will I know if I actually hurt myself? I won't be doing that again for a while. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My Dr. And nutritionist said one cup a day as long as it doesn't bother me. I didn't give it up for my pre op diet or for post op. I stick to the one cup (literally 8 ounces) and mix it with a Protein shake. Double check with your dr, but it seems most are ok with it in moderation. Oh and I was sleeved the same day.

I've just been walking so far. I cannot wait to get back to regularly working out. Yes, I do measure my food with a food scale. $12 on Amazon, and it gives me peace of mind. So I went to the wedding today. Had a very small amount of mashed potatoes, creamed spinach and some filet mignon. I chewed the meat like crazy, and luckily is was fork tender so I had no issues. And it was nice to realize that even though I thought people would be watching me and criticizing why I am eating so little or cutting it so small, NO ONE cares! lol. I was so paranoid people would comment or judge, and no one even paid attention. It definitely put my mind at ease as far as eating out. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
