Eating Blow Out.....



Recommended Posts

A couple of nights ago I started eating and couldn't stop myself. Over a period of say 2hrs I'd eaten heaps of junk! I was so concerned I'd stretched my sleeve however yesterday I was back eating like a bird again.....weird, has anyone else had the same experience?

Yup! We are recovering from our youngests sweet 16 birthday - with a house full of houseguests for a week - lots of stuff in the house that the adults who live here, and who have both had vsg surgery no longer eat, eating out, off of our normal routine etc....For me it is carbs - I have a hamburger bun and I turn into Mrs. Hyde - obsessed with all of the carbs in the house - scheming to eat potato chips etc....I am back to bootcamp now - cutting carbs to under 20.

I have found it is a whole lot easier to eat a lot more of the stuff we shouldnt be eating. I get in trouble if i do not plan my meals and drinking - grazing will stall my weight loss quickly.

Funny, I was going to post something similar today. I had a random day yesterday. Went out to lunch with my daughter and had a wine and potatoes. Went to dinner at my sisters and grazed on a platter of cheese, pickles (which I didn't like per sleeve), pâté and crackers while sharing more than a bottle of wine. Then we had BBQ though I only ate the venison steak but an hour later I had ICE CREAM! Insane. Gets worse as before we went home I had a hot chocolate.

Can't quite believe I ate all that.

Funny thing is I weighed myself this morning with a heavy air of remorse and guilt, but lost 1.2 kilos since yesterday morning. So, guilt gone and back on my sensible and usual eating regime today!

It is weird how our sleeves are.

Some days mine is really tolerant and can fit in what feels like so much food and other days it is bird sized meals.

As a female there are specific days that my stomach seems to be regular size again, but most the time the food is slider food I am consuming, so more goes in.

With relation to the binging and loosing weight, often our bodies do that , i think there is an article on this site about that, it is fairly normal for dieting as well. Our bodies often go into starvation mode as they call it and then we eat more calories than normal and all of a sudden it is like woohoo I dont need to hold onto every calorie consumed and we loose weight....no to say we should binge eat all the time, that is for me atleast how I got into this situation in the first place.

Just my 2c

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
