Food Before and After Photos

1000% agree. I’m more likely to get multiple drinks while out for long periods vs food. I even started leaving bottles of SF iced tea in my car and if I randomly head to my trunk my kids get annoyed because it means I have no plans to stop at Starbucks like I promised 😂 -

COMPLETELY fallen off the wagon :(
GreenTealael replied to JazzyJess20's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Whenever I feel like I’m off plan for too long, I meal prep (vs pouch reset). Having the foods ready and available makes it hard to justify going out if my way for other foods. You can definitely get back on track anytime you want. Good luck ❤️ -
Amazing progress, Congratulations!

Soup and Drinking

Oh wow I just realized I don’t even eat soup with solids in it anymore. I am either eating stew or drinking broth! -
Have You Ever Noticed How Sometimes You Have to Eat MORE to Lose More?

Yes it happens to me sometimes also! -
Speed of eating - does it really matter when you know your limit??
GreenTealael replied to Spinoza's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Fast eating probably started for me from always being pressed for time. I still finish eating in 30 mins or much less TBH. I haven’t seen any negative outcomes from it. If I eat for longer I’m for certain eating more than I need to. Since my fullness also “catches up” later, I eat either portioned amounts or until I think I should stop. -

Should I Sleeve if I am NOT A BIG EATER?
GreenTealael replied to sleevenaive's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
These posts are from 11 years ago! We have access to do much more information now. Ask your surgeon about weight loss outcomes when taking medications that are known to cause weight gain. Also ask the prescribing physician if there are alternatives that you could switch to. And you could always start a thread asking other members to share their experiences with WLS while on meds that cause weight gain. Good Luck ❤️ -

I've regained the weight I lost
GreenTealael replied to ElseeGee181's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That’s unfortunate to hear 😩 Since you’ll have to find a new surgeon if you decide to have a revision, try to establish yourself with one that has a comprehensive team that you’re confident in. And don’t forget to ask about all of your options, not just surgical. -

GreenTealael replied to ElseeGee181's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Please don’t forget to contact your Surgeon/team. Don’t be embarrassed to ask for their help. Perhaps you can get a good look at how to optimize your diet with a nutritionist, habit building with a therapist and there are a lot of new weight loss medications recently approved that may help before revision surgery is needed. Good Luck ❤️
