Sleeve holds too much food



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 1/28/13 and Im still barely getting down my liquids. I haven't tried eating anything. I barely can drink 2 Protein Shakes and Water. Wow amazing how all our bodies are different. Good luck on your progress

looks like its all been said but I will throw in my two cents

You can only eat that much because its so soft. If you scrambled an egg or something you would be shocked.

Also, why are you eating 8oz of food? You shouldn't even be putting that much in front of yourself.

I'm gonna try a poached egg tomorrow morning. Do u think 2 eggs is too much?

YES. One. Just one. Your eyes are larger than your stomach right now.

If I am correct, it contains too much fat. You can have as many egg whites as you like but only 1 egg yolk per day safely.

yyyyeeeahhh this type of thing sort of depends who you talk too. The yolk has fat but it also contains a lot of nutrients that need fat to absorb. The egg is natures little Protein pack... perfect the way it is. Just have one a day, don't go crazy.

Then your next quote was one a day, then you posted an article that says any will kill you (bad as a cigarette...though not an issue with fat as you posted as well) then the next says have a few...

Just an FYI that you might find beneficial: Not everything you read on the internet is true!

well, the dailymail is like getting your medical information from Perez Hilton. There is even a song about it!

I seem to have stirred up a hornet's nest with egg thing ! I agree with "Everything is all right moderation".

It took me three times of scrambling two eggs to realize that I could only eat one! Now my 10 year old says to me at every Breakfast "mum, you can only eat one egg"!

I generally do not make it through the two eggs I mentioned above. The part I am unable to complete goes to my dog. There is usually about 1/2 egg I do not finish. The reason I use 2 eggs is because I am usually a little more hungry then 1 with the amount of calories I am burning from running.

Your sleeve is a roaring success. Although as compared to me I am amazed how you are full with 1, 1/2 eggs ! I think my sleeve is much bigger than you !

Angel I answer my posts on an Ipad so I'm not sure if it's the same on the internet but for me, looking at the screen to the right of the name you want to quote (answer specific person's question) is a little blue v. If you touch the v it gives you options (things like to "like" a post, etc). To answer someone specifically you hit the blue v in their post and choose quote. That will bring up their comment in a blank window called new reply where you type out your thoughts below their already inserted comments.

This is just a test to see if it works

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
