delta_girl 931 Posted November 28, 2012 How tall are you? I was sleeved on the same day. My pre surgery weight was 216 and was 212 the day of surgery. I am now bouncing between 176-178. 1 sabbymomof3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hopeful loser 22 Posted November 28, 2012 I was sleeved on Sept. 4th. So far, down 48 lbs, including the 15 I lost before surgery. I've been very fortunate so far, can tolerate most foods now except for milk. I seem to be lactose intolerant now, it upsets my stomach, but I do eat cheese. Can't do ice cream, but some frozen yogurt. I eat a lot of greek yogurt. Haven't really had any problems, just have to be mindful of how much I eat, still trying to figure out that one. About a cup of food total now is about right, sometimes too much depending on what it is. Still have to make myself not to drink for at least 40 minutes after I eat. I am very happy I had this surgery and very thankful I have not had issues with vomiting. 1 sabbymomof3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabbymomof3 11 Posted November 28, 2012 I'm 5'1 and 3/4 lol... the hardest thing for me is not being able to eat and drink at the same time. I swear I'm dying of thirst after one bite. Other than that I have been great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delta_girl 931 Posted November 28, 2012 I haven't thrown up yet, but I have overeaten a few times and it was very uncomfortable. I still drink shakes, though not every day. I do notice that when I don't drink a shake it is more difficult for me to get in enough Protein. I either use Isopure and mix it in a blender with ice or drink the Muscle Milk Light chocolate with 100 cals. I eat a lot of Greek yogurt, too. I have been trying a lot of things, but not raw vegetables or fruit yet, and no steak. I'm in no hurry for those. The things that seem to upset my stomach so far is pineapple, more than just a taste of sugar, turnips, onions, but again I have only recently been reintroducing a variety of foods. My two worst experiences were when I tried to eat something that had sugar in it. My Snacks are Greek yogurt, Ostrim, sugar free Jello Gelatin or pudding, Goldfish crackers, ...I need to work on adding more variety here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
