Eating/Drinking Too Much, Too Fast



Recommended Posts

I'm 13 days post-op and I feel like I can eat too much, too fast. For example, in the morning, I drink a full 8oz Protein Shake which takes me about an hour to finish. I think that's fine, but then over the past couple days I've been feeling hungrier more often. So, I try to eat a couple ounces of Protein rich foods throughout the day, and then a second protein shake in the evening. Have I stretched my sleeve already? Is that why I'm feeling hungrier? Is this normal?

I seem to. E having the same issue I'm two moths out and I can eat quite a bit of food. I think I have to constantly remind myself to slow down and allow my stomach to send messages to my brain saying that's enough and not eat until I feel full

You need to stick to portions sizes. I felt like I was straving, I couldn't sip I had to gulp. I couldn't nibble I had finish it. It's so hard. I know I was regretting it like crazy but think lifestyle change everything you used to do didn't work. Take your time!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
