Hey I'm finally back on here. Any who I had surgery 11/16 I have not been doing so well. My eating habit suck bad. I am just looking for information to help get me back on track. I have not gain any weight. I just don't really eat much at all and if I do it's not really healthy for me.

A lot of the doctors' nutritionists have really good long term healthy food goals that avoid sugars, fake sugars, and extraneous carbs including fruit. I actually chose my doc based on the nutritionist he chose because I believed not only was he a great surgeon but he cared about long term healthy post op.

this may not be popular around here, but fake sugars and staying on sweet foods IS HARMFUL. There are lots of other tastes than are good and yummy that don't harm us. We have to leave behind the sweet tastes pretty much forever. And when we do, our gut bugs (where all food cravings come from) start to be the kind that crave vegetables, healthy fats, and Proteins.

I don't know how my fellow sleevers who are told to eat tons of sweet things (fake sugar packaged products and drinks) ever do it. It must make weight loss so much harder when your body is crying out for sugary sweet things.

We get this do over. I want to eat what I want my body to crave. Real, natural, healthy food. Maybe it might work for you too (I am very much a work in progress). Good luck! You got this.

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