Food question?



Recommended Posts

So Im three weeks out - been trying different solids (doc said ok as long as i chew to the point of puree). Ive been noticing too lately that sometimes Im feeling hungry.

I get in my Protein daily - i get in my Water. Im trying to stay under 800 cals a day for weight loss - ive been snacking on dill pickle spears the last couple of days. I tolerate them fine - and theyre zero cals/carbs. Anyone else snack on them?

Dill spears are what I nom on for when I just want something to eat with no repercussions to my diet.

I'm not sure if you can eat these yet but these look pretty good and have some great stats:

8.2 calories, 0.5 carbs, 1.25 Protein per bite

My tummy doesn't like acid, but if they don't bother you, enjoy!

I thought my sleeve didn't like acid either. I was getting really really mild reflux, more annoying at times than pain.

I got some apple cider vinegar after reading about it on here - and it works. Mild reflux gone.

That fact that I have it in a shot glass, bang it on the table like it's a tequila shot is a whole 'nother issue.

Oh man do those sound delicious... I wonder if they'd bake in a toaster oven?

Can't wait to try these! My 3 yr old and I were enjoying cauliflower crust pizza before my sleeve. Never even thought about making minis! Thanks for sharing!

I am three weeks out also, and I am doing good getting everything I need,but I am starving all the time. I am sure some of its mental, but if I don't eat every three hours, I start throthing and it drives me crazy. I am already eating solids, just not meat. I am afraid I am taking in too many calories

Looking at your ticker you're obviously doing something right! :)

3 weeks out, that's a great lose. Nothing wrong with eating every three hours - I do. I don't get hungry, but I don't like the empty feeling I get either.

I don't really feel physically hungry except for first thing when I wake up. Every other time I have been craving something, it's been head hunger, which (so far) seems easier to fight than before.

      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!
