Got A Little Cocky With My Sleeve Today



Recommended Posts

hehehe, just sayin' Try to stick with "slow and steady progress" and do not rush. That said most experiment (once). I did. BOY was that no fun!

When your sleeve says 'no', there will be slimies, and discomfort for a couple hours and nausea and vomiting. SOME FUN!!

Mouse, I have the same experience, especially with scrambled eggs. I don't know why. Keep it to one or two eggs and just stop. You might feel full eventually. (I'm four weeks out.)

Also, your nerve endings are probably still healing so you may not have that full feeling yet.

Woo happy it's not just me. I'm only eating one egg a day.

Six months out and cannot eat any reheated eat unless it's in Soup or a casserole. No way, no how. And cold meat? Nope.

I hear you!

One's not quite enough. Two is pretty much too much, or close. I'm still experimenting. I mean for a while there I completely forgot that I could have one egg, and something else.

Oooh! Oooh! Also, with eggs I can't stand them cold. So I know I'm eating them too quickly. I mean, I'm not chugging them or anything, but I'm definitely not taking longer than 5-10 minutes. More to work on.

Mouse I was exactly like you I felt there was very little restriction.However I am now 3 months out and my restriction seems to be working full force now. It seems as as time goes on I get more restriction. I have a hard time with 4 ounces of soft fish now, where as before no problem. I hope yours works like mine. I am down 51 pounds in 3 months and my Dr says I am above the curve in loss. Yay.

You live and learn! I think it is all part of the process. I do eat slower now and smaller bites. But I too had to learn the hard way as most of us do. Why........Because eating fast and larger bites seems to be a common problem we all have had pre op and need to learn the new way by what else........Trial and error. Best of luck to you!! :)

      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.
