Calling all 1 year sleevers



Recommended Posts

I'm getting sleeved next week. I'm wondering if after all this time, if you go to the movies can you tolerate a tiny or little amount of popcorn? Is there any indulging at all? I don't mean sitting down and eating a whole pint of ice cream. I'm talking having 2 Cookies or a cup of popcorn at the movies. Not every day. Anyone out there with answers?

Unfortunately, popcorn is a notorious slider. Therefore I can sit and eat a bunch of it. I really didn't care for it before, but I can eat is endlessly I think I crave it because I can eat a lot of it.

Yes when you're healed you can incorporate some treats here and there. I'm a popcorn fan, and share when I go to the movies. I actually eat the 100 calorie bags a few days a week!

Yes I enjoy popcorn at the movies. I actually do get restriction with it so I eat what I want and I'm satisfied.

I enjoy eating something I love and being able to control the portions.

You will love your sleeve.

The fat girl in me is thrilled with this new info! So scary tho. So, I have a question. It seems like there are a lot of people that barely go over and mess up just a tiny bit and gain weight. The fat me can get away with so much that it really scares me to think I might splurge on too many blueberries and gain 2 lbs!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
