10 weeks, can eat more?



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm 10 weeks out now, and just in the last 2 days it seems like I can eat more than usual. For instance, usually I can eat 2 of my homemade Protein bites and feel full. Now I eat two and feel like I could eat at least one more, maybe two. Huh? I'm drinking more/faster too. I'm not hungrier, just have more room all of a sudden.

Husband and I joked tonight that maybe I wasn't really sleeved, but got the privation and the stitches (things) popped. Lol. No way, I can't even eat close to what I could in the past.

So is this'd pretty common around 10 weeks? I know some way farther out than me that can't eat chicken.

Depends on what I eat but at times I feel like can eat more never a lot a lot 3/4 cup at most and usually eat 1/2 cup I'm almost 9 weeks. I know in time will be able to eat little more but never what I could before, and seen others say that they can eat little more in time

I'm trying to think. (Never a good thong lol)

I measure with scales, and I'm trying to visualize my Breakfast in a cup. I'd say it was around half a cup max. dinner, 2 oz chicken and a Protein bite "dessert". Yeah, probably about half cup

Do you ever have days that you swear you ate too much, look at mfp and realize you've only gotten 500 calories? Lol. Happens to me at least once a week.

I do when its that tine of month so thise are my days I splurge. It has kept me out of stalls. I eat very good for the rest of the month. When I say splurge I don't mean go crazy but I take in a few extra calories.

You know, I should start any day now. How would Sleevie be bigger when my uterus is throwing a fit? How's it related?

And today, I wasn't able to eat like yesterday. I think stress tenses up my sleeve.

I have days, like this morning, where I can eat 2-3 tablespoons of food and be full. Then I have days where I've eaten almost 3/4 of a sandwich. I think it's normal, weight is still coming off nicely. Just don't go too crazy too often and all will be well :)

I think hormones cause the sleeve to relax. I'm not sure but it makes sense to me haha!

      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.

      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!
