Sleeved 5/17 And I Have Questions



Recommended Posts

ease up on the chicken and turkey now, 3 weeks out is still needing softer food. I bet thats the whole problem. Try tuna, salmon and fish.

the moister the better now. I always try not to expand my time of eating to more than 20 mins. Our sleeves really cant hold more than few bites. The real question is, are you satisfied after eating? or do u feel hungry? or do u feel like u are sweating and over done it? (chest pain)

Again I will confirm it for you it gets way easier, your stomach is still swelling and still healing and the real capacity is ahead of you. Be kind to it and go for softer food. I will be it will makes a difference and you wont feel like "eating" is a lot of work to do.

best of luck

Loo I am full after eating. I have learned when to stop. My problem is I'm hungry an hour or two later. I do eat more fish than chicken or beef. I tend to eat chicken and beef at work to not have the breakroom smelling fishy. I eat fish at home. I am going to try more Protein Shakes in this coming week. Maybe my sleeve wasn't ready. I will take a step back and see how it goes.

dont worry honey, the hunger feeling wont strike u that often in a matter of month or so. let us know how it goes, and if u still feel the same, then u need to talk to your doctor.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
