miiszsexy171 28 Posted January 21, 2013 I want chicken and shrimp from the Chinese grilled ..... What ya think about me eating that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dezilou 18 Posted January 21, 2013 I don't think you should, personally. Maybe something a little less harsh on your new stomach. Whenever I think about seriiously eating, I ask myself if its head-hunger or is there an emotional tie, or if its just the memory of food leaving my system. I also remember how my surgeon told me that he had someone go to a chinese buffet after surgery; her new sleeve didn't hold, cause she wasn't supposed to be on solids, and her stomach burst. She was in the hospital for 6 months, cause there was no way to surgically repair it...that keeps me from eating A LOT of things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Almostthere34 128 Posted January 21, 2013 Depends on your doctors orders. I would Follow the rules for your safety. My doctor had me on solids week 3. I had to chew really well. Might only be able to get in one shrimp. It was a bit frustrating but I got through it and you will too. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Almostthere34 128 Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks how far u in with the sleeve ? Sometimes I think it is my mind playing with me that makes me feel like I'm always hungry it's hard for me. No problem. I am 7 mos in and I don't do Chinese much anymore. I eat according to what feels good and rice and pastas fill me up too quickly. If I have Chinese I have teriyaki chicken, no rice. I tried after a few months and it made me sick so I just recently tried it again and it was ok. Head hunger is the worse but it gets better. It gets to a point where you recognize the difference.

Renea77 84 Posted January 22, 2013 I totally agree with almost there, it does get better and you may just be experiencing head hunger. Hang in there and know it gets better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
