Appetite back with a vengance!
GreenTealael replied to BajanSleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My appetite is back to normal near my menstrual cycle but what I tend to do is load on leafy greens (kale salad) and hydrate the hell out of my days so when I go over my calories I KNOW I did everything else first and it was true hunger and not the head hunger everyone speaks of... -
What are your sliders? Mine are yogurt, nuts and protein bars. Eventually I will feel restriction but I've consumed so many calories by that point it's like sabotage (never tried this, decided to be cautious when I saw the calorie count and my tolerance )

Let us know how it goes!

I liked ramen prior to surgery but post I refuse to eat pasta (outside of Italy and Asia) so I make an all veggie version with eggs of course
-
So question everyone, are we staying away from sliders or just limiting them?

Concerns about calorie intake
GreenTealael replied to OneYearLater's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm not gonna lie I skim read (or as Gladwell calls it microsectioning) and all I saw was the word cookie and I knew something wasn't right so I read the entire thing lol, congrats on finding what works for you -
Coming up with a blank
GreenTealael replied to Jenyp8409's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think the confused emoticon either is condescending or means someone needs help/explanation and it's really hard to distinguish between the two without a comment attached. But I am also beginning to get confused emoticons on things that are clearly stated... -

Please consult your NUT or Team as they may have special plans in place for you especially since you are a conversion. -
This is what I ate today...
GreenTealael replied to BuzzVSG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Protein bars are all fun and games until youre choosing to eat them over and over again instead of real for either for convenience or flavor. They are usually the same calorie range of a real meal as well. If you can eat real food, choose it. Use protein bars sparingly if you can help it. -

Unfortunately it's the luck of the draw with telogen effluvium , some experience it, some do not. The rate of loss per person will vary on a number of things , general health, type of surgery, genetics, protein intake, prayer, hair type, iron levels, sci-fi preference, etc. Do your research, visit a dermatologist and do what you are comfortable doing (and spending) for a remedy. But I will suggest LLysine as something to look into...

WHO IN PUBLIC LIFE OR HOLLYWOOD DO YOU THINK WOULD BENEFIT MOST FROM BARIATRIC SURGERY?

Which Food Tracker App/Log Are You Using?

Myfitnesspal because my nut can print reports and keep track with me so they requested I use it -
WHO IN PUBLIC LIFE OR HOLLYWOOD DO YOU THINK WOULD BENEFIT MOST FROM BARIATRIC SURGERY?
GreenTealael replied to Frustr8's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I guess this was one of the reasons why it may have been in poor tastes to assume someone should could would have the surgery. I guess a better questions may have been would more public figures openly have surgery if the stigma of the "easy way out" was removed from this option? And would that then be a public health courtesy or disservice ? -
