It's a learning process to say the least. I end up with the slimes every few weeks now from eating too fast or a bit too much. But I still love having my bumperguard sleeve to keep me in line. That's why I got it!

Best of luck!

I remember when I got sleeved a year and almost 3 months ago, I thought I was gonna die when I use to swallow fast and eat fast, it took me a min to learn and adapt myself to my new eating lifestyle, I use to crawl on the floor because of the pain I use to cry I use to tell my bf back then I'm going to die its a matter of time you will get use to it sweety!!!!! Good luck

@@Aribay1 If you're having really bad pain, you could be experiencing dumping syndrome. This seems to happen more with gastric bypass surgeries, but can happen with the sleeve. Did you eat something that was somewhat fatty or sugary? It can also happen from overfilling the sleeve, which forces larger bits into the intestine.

No dumping. I ate Chipotle. Steak rice Beans corn tomatoes lettuce things I normally eat (i love chipotle) I've always been fine. I was just really hungry and took that lethal too far bite. I just felt discomfort. I'm all good now.

I did that today. One bite too many of the shrimp I was having for dinner and I had to lie down and wait a good 45 minutes for the discomfort to go away. I am getting better at it (5 months out), but I still overestimate how much I can eat sometimes and I regret it!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
