Only 35Lbs Down And Able To Eat Too Much :-(



Recommended Posts

Wow thank u all for ur support and encouragement. I love this site and the people in it :-). I have been trying to get the Protein in but its been tough. I ordered some unflavored so I can start mixing it with everything. I also can't seem to keep Water down... so I crush ice like a snocone and eat it constantly... usually an entire ice cube tray a night. I will keep on it, have a better attitude and come here often.... yes, we will succeed together! Thanks again... all of u!!

If your not able to tolerate Water - I was told this happens and I have the same issue. I put cukes, citrus, a table spoon on cranberry or pomegranate juice in it, drink unsweet teas, and crystal light. I thought there was something wrong with me. My surgeon said it happened sometimes and that it would change over time. I also have intolerance for sickly sweet. I have been drinking the Isopure Protein rtd which I am able to get down easier than the milkshake kind. I tried the unflavored Unjury protein and it smelled so bad i couldn't tolerate it. I'm not sure if it was bad or if it is all like that.

I had my surgery the day before you, lost about the same as you and I feel like

it's a nice amount of weight lost. I stalled for a couple weeks, ate a little more carbs/calories and voila! the scale moved-- but that's controversial and my opinion only.

If you're doing the Protein, Water and whatever else the doctor said to you you can only go down.

^^^ This. Your body may be going into starvation mode if you are not getting enough fuel. Sleeved or not this will happen. I have had to up my intake several times to break a stall a few times.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
