How restricted is your sleeve?



Recommended Posts

I am on 2 oz size meals. I definitely agree that fat is not tolerable. I just had a good dinner - chicken and edamame so small when I look at it. But I am so full and think I ate a bit too fast.

How is everyone pacing your eating or is this a problem for all?

I wait like 45 seconds to a Minute between each bite, im only 12 days post op tho so i haven't really ate any real food yet lol. But i can relate tho, i usually cook my food to a high temp to discipline me from eating too fast.

I am 2 weeks out - what are you eating? I am getting super bored of mushy eggs and stuff.....uhhh, I need ideas! Ha

I am 4 weeks out so my diet options are likely more expanded. I cannot drink all day, as I have to do the 30/30 thing. I have yogurt, cottage cheese, some fruit, chicken, ground meat, some cooked veggies --- sounds more exciting when I write it, but 2 oz meals is hard to do more than one item.

I am three months out and have three meals a day measured at 2 ounces. I drink two Protein drinks a day (Isopure right now is what I am liking.)

I found that I tolerate salmon very well, chicken depending on how it is cooked must be tender. Red meats are not tolerated very well. I love tilapia, but for some reason do not tolerate it well. I do pretty good with sautéed cabbage over cooked, but not cauliflower as much unless I use the rice cauliflower.

There is a lot of trial and error.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
