Kinda Naughty Nsv Dont Fuss At Me



Recommended Posts

Same here, I order small amounts sometimes don't finish or even take some of it home. And remember guys nearly EVERYTHING is permissible - just use good common sense and eat in moderation, something the sleeve FINALLY allows us to do.

At one restaurant we visit we split an entree, take half home for a meal the next day - that's FOUR meals from "ONE" serving. Portions are just WAY outta control.

Another thing I notice is that I am enjoying food MORE now that I am eating LESS. I just enjoy the FLAVOR now rather than just striving to fill myself up.

Went to lunch with some folks the other day and while they all indulged in the 100% southern blue plate special of chicken fried steak & mashed potatoes with gravy at the diner, I ordered "scrambled" egg substitute and corned beef hash. Needless to say, that $5.25 was good for 3 meals and a snack. :D Just added some picante sauce one time, shredded cheddar another, and then picante & shredded cheese to mix it up a little.

taco bell has become one of the places I eat at now - I get whatever want and throw away the tortilla - be it a chicken quesadilla or tacos or even a mexican pizza, I eat the guts and throw away the wrap :)

You all are SO reassuring!! I had my sleeve Friday and was beginning to think I had made a HUGE mistake. I LOVE to eat, when I heal and get off liquids I was thinking I'd never be able ro eat again. Thanks for all your input!!

I've tried a Wendy's $0.99 cheeseburger and I can eat about half... sleeved 4/19. Bread/starch does fine for me, I have no issues with it but it does fill me up where Protein should be, so I eat it sparingly. What I actually really like from Wendy's if I'm on the go are the spicy chicken nuggets. Not great for you by any stretch from a fat-content perspective, but not any worse than a cheeseburger (better, in fact) and with less carbs and similar protein. I would never eat McD's chicken nuggets, they skeeve me out. But Wendy's are really good :)

Carls Junior has some great options too. The charbroiled chicken club is sooo good & they.make it w/ lettuce instead of a bun if you ask. Grilled chicken, cheese & bacon. 7 carbs & 30 Protein. Definitely multiple meals!

      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?
