June 2013 sleevers, eating more?

[kme 1]

Hi all, I was sleeved on June 19th 2013 and I'm down 96lbs, but I've noticed in the last month or so that I'm able to eat more and I'm kind of nervous about it. Anyone else experiencing the same? Is my stomach stretching?

Your stomach is not stretching. The stomach is a bit more relaxed now and it also depends on what kinds of foods your eating. If your eating sliders, you will get way more in there. Now dense Proteins, not so much... You have lost 96 lbs and that's fantastic! CONGRATS on your success!

I was sleeved on July 11 2013.

I think that I have always been worried that down the road I would be able to eat more I just measure to make sure I don't eat more. I stay away from slider food and stick to the Protein and veggies. I also drink hot liquid like sugar free hot cocoa or sugar free apple cider to keep the full feeling between meals. I guess I am in such fear of down the road and 3 years out that I believe that I just have to always measure and will continue. I made a promise to myself that if I did this surgery I would always measure and always work out for life.

I was sleeved June 7th and most of the time I am still limited to 4 ounces and sometimes if I luck out I can get 6 ounces in. I think during the holidays if we are eating things we don't normally partake in we have a tendency to think we ate far more than we actually did just from the guilt of it all. However, I also think we can handle sliders quite efficiently especially if we have a beverage with it. I did pretty good during the holidays..........I did let loose on New Year's Eve though!! Congratulations on the 96 pounds!!

Thx guys!!! I think you're right about the guilt. I'm also guilty of not measuring so I'm going to try to start doing so for my peace of mind
