Baby foods and real food.
dreamingsmall replied to Mom3boys1971's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Real food is batter. More nutrients. Just puree food. I tried baby food tasted gross. Regain can happen to anyone if you do not stick it the plan. But some regain at goal is also known as bounce back. I'm 6 weeks post. Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app -

Confused About Expected Weight Loss
dreamingsmall replied to Cathy Mettille's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told 80% excess weight. I'm in the uk He said he doesn't want me under 28 BMI that that's what he is and he is healthy that I'll look gaunt... sw 244 cw 216 6 weeks in gw -135 I'm aiming for normal BMI despite what he said. I'll just keep working at it when weight loss slows Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app -

A little bummed out...
dreamingsmall replied to sox1210's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
If it were me I'd prefer to be told so I can just check I'm staying on track Its easy for little treats to sneek in. So it would help me stay on track. I know they are there to help My surgeon doesn't mention weight. I see him 6 weeks then next 6 month's. My nurse and dietician at 12 weeks Keep going you got this. Dont feel discouraged. If your sticking to the plan . getting enough fluid's. Keep on as you are. Some lose faster some slower but we all get there. Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app -

Are you going to tell us what your eating. Cant tell what your doing with no info What has your surgeon said ? Are you drinking enough fluid? Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app -
You don't need to do any type of cleanse. If you take down the sugar. And go back to dense protein you will really feel the restriction. Your tummy won't feel bigger if you say had some steak. But would with slider food. Just go back to basics and continue on. I'm on holiday so I am worrying Bout not losing as can't weigh food. Just eating proteins and tiny amount of veg doesn't allow for.me to over eat. You got this. What is your Daily eating like Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app

why did i bother to tell my friends UGH
dreamingsmall replied to sassy683's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I told my mum. I already knew why I was doing this. I didnt need anyone's opinion. And when you tell people. They assume you want there advice. Good luck. Actions speak louder than words. When people see the weight dropping off and ask. I'll say. But happy I told no one before. -
I am 6 week out , been on normal food since 4+ weeks. ( surgeon approved me) I just wondered any tips for havin a sleeve on holiday? What sorts of meals do you have in the hotel as we will be eating at the restaurant here. Its weird going away first time not weighing food, what can I eat that il be sure ther is no possibility to eat to much lol im nervous! I dont want to feel left out when everyone is eating fun things lol y surgeons plan for me is not low carb its just a baanced diet, but i knw protein keeps you full.

I do not know what just happened. i have a history of Bulimia of perhaps 15 years but been 'clean' a year + It is not even on my rader , It was an issue of binging and purging I do not binge anymore. I am 6 week post sleeve done all as planned. Just now I ate some salmon , very tiny amount. But suddenly I was caught unaware by this feeling of fullness not excessively i ate 1.5 almost 2 ounces.( I have not been able to eat much the last few days due to stress so i dont know if my tummy shrunk hence this new feeling that overwhelmed me. Did I get a feeling at all? is it in my head i dont even know. But I lost my mind it seemed silently, I just went off without thinking and purged. ( i can honestly say it was an odd experiance i had not eaten much to purge compared to what i was used to the flood of food coming up and feeling that sense of relief ther was nothing to come out i was left feeling sick and confused why did i do this? i did not binge, how did this happen? Its like i didnt even realise it happening so fast. what have i done to my sleeve bringing acid up probably? please do not judge me i am so confused. My tummy hurts. I have stuck to the plan done everything right, now i have let myself down .. so what now.. I just need to talk to someone. EDIT - please dont judge me , yes my surgeon was fully aware of my history honestly this is a shock to me happening as i was in a good place had councelling etc. im worried how people will respond to this so tempted to delete before anyone sees lol

Jealous of others on here
dreamingsmall replied to Mersh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like how you do things, i was told the same frm my surgeon no more diets just eat in moderation but when you see how everyone is doing here, i start to worry i am doing it wrong!! -
You have done well so far keep going, what are you eating everyday? under 6ounce protien first for your meals?
-
Hi sorry i miss understood your surgery was 2015 and the lowest you got was 196 in the 2 years? is that what your saying? that 6lbs weightloss will be alot of water weight from carb reduction but keep it up! its a great boost! But yes anyone having issues should go back to dense protein which is what works for your pouch. congrats I personally do not believe in all the resets, people gain from eating too much sliders, ( apart rom usual stall) stop sliders go back to just protein first and weigh your food alot simpler than a 'pouch reset that does not actually reset anything' and you will feel the restriction right from the start but good you found what works for you
