Help, I Think I Eat To Much!



Recommended Posts

I got sLeeved oct 9th and I can eat up to 3 oz. Of salmon in one sitting. I have a problem slowing down, and really concentrating on the food. I wasn't starving. But my instructions are to begin eating soft mushy foods, 1 oz meat, 1 oz. Veggies, fruit.< /p>

Is it possible to eat that much in one sitting? I am doing pretty good about no liquids before or after and if I wait a bit, I actually feel full. I haven't thrown up at all, just worried!

I was sleeved Sept 6th, different foods I can eat more of especially softer type foods. I would make sure that I was getting enough protien in first before eating anything else. A typical day for me is

RTD shake for Breakfast

chicken noodle Soup for lunch w/o the noodle or chili or refired Beans

maybe a snack of cheese stick / or a prune / or grapes

2 oz of some type of meat for dinner and maybe a tblspoon of vegtables or sweet potatoe

this comes out to about 70 protien under 30 carbs and about 700 calories

also I bought these little 1/2 cup containers, so it really helps with Portion Control, fill the cup and never eat more than that if you can even eat that much. I also eat with a baby spoon and it really really helps .makes it seem like your eating allot more than you are and slows you down. :rolleyes:

Ok I don't feel so bad. I drink a protien shake for Breakfast, i also have a cheesestick snack. Then for lunch, usually 1/2 cup or less of tuna salad (I should try more soups!). dinner I will have to lessen my portion of meat and add real veggies. I always have SF Popsicles and Jello for evening Snacks.< /p>

I also love the saltine crackers! I was wondering if I can try pita crackers or those Milton multigrain new baked crackers?

      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.
