Sleeve working or nah?



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery done on Jan 26,2017 and I am worried that I might be eating too much... I usually have 4 ounces of my creamy Soup or my blended oatmeal per meal and I still get hungry about an hour or so later and pretty much everything I put in my mouth hurts to go down.. anyone else experience that? if so how long before it goes away!?

Well you are still early in the process. Sometimes it can be difficult to separate true hunger from head hungry. It might be worth your while to discuss this with your doctor.

Thanks yea it's so hard to tell! Plus my stomach makes all these new grumbling sounds I haven't quite figured out yet

Don't worry. That is not much food at all! The grumbling is normal and the discomfort will subside. Perfectly normal for so soon. liquids and purees go down real easy and hunger can return. Once you are on to solid food you will feel the restriction all the more.

      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.
