The relief of the revisit



Recommended Posts

I don't want to gross anyone out, but my surgeon has me on the stage of trying new things. Oh, oh, oh, when it's not right I feel like collapsing. All I can do is wait for the revisit and lay down. As soon as that happens, I'm me again. This time I had one bite of a tortilla - won't be doing that again. So, now I know no fish and tortillas. If this is the impact of all carbs, I'll be in a good place with food, but figuring it out is just gross. Definitely not trying new things while out and about.

Is this the norm with folks?

For me it was cauliflower.....never again. But I can keep broccoli and cabbage down. Go figure!

I think it is normal, you may need to wait a few months and try again. For me right now, I don't handle beef well. chicken and ham I'm good but beef likes to revisit me.

Hamburger is my bane :/ I had a single bit last night and yeah...never again.

Regular, lean beef I seem to be okay with, so long as it's very well cooked and tender. (maybe because the beef was in a sauce and fall-apart-tender and moist? The burger was broken down for taco meat, and wasn't dry, but blech).

That and regular skim milk are the only things that have caused major distress so far.

Which only goes to show you how each of us have such a different experience even though we are going through the same journey. tuna and eggs are two things I do digest well, and I even put boiled egg in my tuna salad for extra Protein. But fish filets.....I can't......unless they are really really moist.

I just had my first experience with the revisit last week and It totally took me by surprise. I'm 9 weeks PO and have had zero food issues, have ben able to eat pretty much anything within my 'allowances' etc. Ate 2 oz of lean pork chop for dinner, 5 minutes later I was running for the washroom. Weirdest feeling ever and I didn't see it coming at all. Needless to say, me and pork chops will not be friends for awhile. lol!

My revisit was with watermelon. And with me, because I am apparently a glutton for punishment, this revisit has happened on 3 separate occasions. I think watermelon is definitely out for me. It's too bad though, because I absolutely love it.

I haven't had anything bother me.. I must have a cast Iron sleeve! Haha I can sit and eat watermelon for days! It's 90% Water anyway! At least up to now I haven't come across anything that really bothers me. As long as I measure everything I have been lucky I guess! Down 57 pounds and only hit one three week stall!

No FRIED FOODS!! It turns into dumping syndrome for me! I can eat anything else as long as I eat in small portions and chew well!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
