Six weeks post sleeve I chewed a very small soft piece of crockpot chicken breast. It stuck in my chest. I ran through my house unable to tell my husband to call rescue because I could not breathe. You can bet that never happened AGAIN! I took every precaution and had been approved for that chicken in my food plan. I stuck to Soups, broths, shakes, cottage cheese, etc, until my NUT at three months declared I should eat salads. The fear was REAL.

That's scary!!

I wonder what happens to people who eat pizza or a burger the day after. Their stomach is gone - so how do they get back straight? I know it's horribly dangerous. Wonder what their final outcomes are.

I'm 23 months out. I can eat one whole slice. But thats it. One. Nothing else fits.

I eat anything but rice, very minimal bread, no fibrous veggies. But ive had half a double cheese burger, or one slice of pizza. Im 23 mths out. Its ok just as you know you need to continue to exercise. Its a total lifestyle change. But you will eat portions of a kid for the rest of your life.

Like many have posted, please just stop and remind yourself why you put yourself through this surgery! My saving grace was pea Soup, you will find what you like, just remember to stick the guidelines they gave you I know it's hard but I know you can do it! I hope you're feeling better I'm so glad you reached out! I'm 5 months out but I still remind myself everyday why I did this, watching those numbers go down really helps too!

      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.
