My sleeve is still mad at me from 2 hours ago



Recommended Posts

I had one chicken nugget for lunch almost 2 hours ago. ONE chicken nugget and my sleeve is still very upset with me. I know it's different for everyone but I'm just curious what other kinds of foods didn't sit well with you even when you're cleared for solid foods? I've had no trouble at all with most other meat so I'm guessing it was the breading on the nugget. Or maybe the fact that it came from Burger King (don't hate, I had a mini crisis at home this morning and had no time to prepare a lunch for the day).

Steamed cauliflower caused me the greatest amount of pain. I had to wait until I was three months out before I tried it again. Even being nearly two years out, bread and Pasta still sit in my stomach like play-doh, and Miss Tummy will see to it that I am miserable for hours.

I can't do a lot of meats. I can do fish and chicken if eaten really slowly in very small bites. Pulled pork or pulled beef has made me run to the bathroom twice now, on diff occasions and made me very ill. I just can't do beef in general. I don't do breads of any kind cause they just sit like a rock.

Everything is actually fine for me, and I haven't been to fast food yet (don't plan to), but I find that higher Fiber stuff gets me nauseated and causes stacking. I can even tolerate pizza pretty well, but I am steering clear of it as much as I can after giving it a shot last month just out of curiosity. But carbs of any kind fill me up quickly and make me feel like I have ballooned. Fat doesn't do that at all. I just simply can't eat enough anymore to generate a true food coma. And I'm proud of that.

Early on, I had trouble with tuna. Sleeved loved salmon, though.

Don't worry -- chicken McNuggets isn't the worst thing in the world to avoid. And you'll be able to eat it later. That's how it works -- it may not go down well the first time, so avoid it for a few weeks and try it again.

I am nervous to try new things because it seems I have a very picky sleeve and nausea comes easy for me. Eating is pretty much an experiment these days. I don't know until I've tried how bad it might make me feel. Hopefully it won't be so touch-and-go in the months to come.

I love love love tuna, it was a huge part of my pre surgery life. Sadly it makes me feel so ill now. I can eat almost any other meat just fine. Kinda sad but will continue to try and introduce it back in every month or so.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
