Sleever Teachers



Recommended Posts

I am a resource teacher at an elementary school and I was just curious about how my fellow teachers have been handling the change. Is it harder to stick to the diet being at school all day? Am I going to have to take small sips of Water all day for the rest of my life? How is it possible to get all of that water in? When I really looked through the post op diet again, I became a little overwhelmed about how to balance everything. It is well worth it but I need advice and would apprciate knowing your experiences. Thanks. ,

Hi,

I work as a Para Professional in the NYC Public School System. I'm 8 weeks post op and down 40 lbs. I thought it was going to be difficult as well. I use Mio flavoring in my 30 oz water bottle and sip it throughout the day. No problem whatsoever. After experiencing slight dehydration , you're going to find that you go out of your way to drink as much as you can. As for eating I pack a bag every nigh before I go to sleep. I alternate my Snacks. For Breakfast I have an egg or a yogurt or a Protein Shake. Around 10:30 I'll have some almonds or pretzel chips with Hummus or a Sargento snack pack. It's a little difficult at first but first but it gets alot easier as you go along. Best of luck on your journey !!!!

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