Highest weight was 289 I'm currently 243.8.

My only problem is I feel okay times I eat too much and afraid I'll stretch out l. Has anyone felt like this and what did you do?

Yes I feel the same way, at times. What is your diet like? Some things make me throw up. Not sure if I eat to fast...

Nice work! I noticed your comment about fatty food. I've been doing low carb and low sugar. It seems to be working well. I actually needed to increase my calories and I started doing that with bacon or sausage for Breakfast and I'm losing at a steady rate. What I'm saying is that you may not have to fear Protein based fats.

I do sometimes worry that I am pushing the limits of my sleeve too. I'm just a wee bit over 3 months out and losing steadily though so I just try to take my time (I have always been a fast eater so that's an adjustment) and listen to what my body is telling me. I don't generally throw up though so I don't think I have really gone over my bodies limits when it comes to eating. Good luck to all!!

I myself was an fast eater and have to remind myself at times to slow it down. I noticed when I eat fast and get fool lots of saliva and mucous builds up in my throat to where I can't swallow it I have to constantly spit

I have the same issue at times. It's still a mental challenge but it does get better. I've learned to only place very small amounts on my plate now and stop as soon as I feel full. I would like to learn how to stop before the full feeling but I'm not there yet. I put my fork down between bites and look around, chew, think about my new body, then go back to it lol. I'm trying to make food less of a priority. It's hard girl but we will both get there.

I was sleeved 11/12/16.

I can definitely relate.

I am struggling with eating slowly... I have always been a fast eater and now I am trying not to be.

I am also struggling with making sure there is a full 30 minutes between eating and drinking... the struggle is real!!!

You look fantastic and I am super proud of how far we both have come!

Keep it up! you are doing great!

      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.
