So I meet a lady today that had the sleeve a year ago......... and she says she's eating almost the same size as she used to eat pre surgery................. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE IN ONLY A YEAR.........HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE AT ALL?

Perhaps she thinks that what she is eating today is the same as before surgery, but is mistaken about the reality of how much she was eating before... Was she keeping off the weight or gaining?

She said right now she was at a stand still.................. I just can't imagine how that would be humanly possible.

What size of bougie did she have? Maybe it was larger and more of the stretchy part of her stomach was left behind. Ergo it stretched out. That is the only thing I can think of!

It's hard to say what she may be doing but another possibility is that she is drinking while she eats and everything is sliding through and not filling her up.

But I thought is you eat and drink at the same time it gives you problems?

I was a volume eater. There is no way I could go back. My mom on the other hand is a grazer. She eats much less in a sitting. Maybe she wasn't a volume eater.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
