Almost 3 months out and loving my sleeve



Recommended Posts

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.

Thanks and I believe we will! It's just harder to do than say. I'm still trying to learn when I'm full before I get the feeling and having a big glob of spit

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!

Thanks bre!!!!! We both will be some healthy thin mints real soon lol

My biggest struggle is also the drinking waiting after I eat to drink is so hard. Sometimes when I eat things I worry that I'm stretching my stomach but I don't know if it's just me being paranoid

I guess this ex pains why we have the psychological evaluation as well bc it's a lot of mental requirements

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
