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!

      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.
