I'm honestly baffled by this. You ate a small portion of food, that in total probably had 300 calories in it. You are more than two months out and this doesn't sound like it represents any kind of overeating. Just because you are eating healthier doesn't mean that you are limited to only eating healthy things for the rest of your life. The goal is moderation which it sounds like you are doing, don't try to convince yourself that you did anything wrong or that you "cheated." You ate what you wanted and did it in a way that conformed to your weight loss goals, so congrats.

I too was told to walk walk walk. However I injured my back two weeks after surgery and have not been able to. I find the slower I eat the better I feel. If I have any gas pain, I chew A Gas-X and it goes away quickly. I'm a month out now and I don't have the gas as much as I did. I have developed better habits as far as eating slower and very very small bites that I chew a lot. Also I had severe constipation from the pain medication due to my back. This really was difficult. But I'm past that now no more pain meds. I'd rather have the back pain. Sent from my SM-J327P using BariatricPal mobile app

I was sleeve on 3-22 and I feel the same way not hunger but drink plenty of water and protein shakes food has no appeal to me and just trying to eat soft foods gets boring. I have tried like chicken and chicken salad but at this point I can only tolerate 3or 4 baby spoons and my taste buds have change tremendously please tell me they will return to normal

Thanks Glamgirl I hope the same for you!! I'm doing well with my water but definitely struggling with the protein as I'm vegetarian so it's not easy but we'll keep trying. Hugs!!

Food Funerals. Lots of people have them:)

Before surgery, I had constant hunger. When I was eating a meal, my mind was thinking what I would have for my next meal. It was incessant. Now the interesting thing that occurred after my RNY surgery was that I completely lost my hunger. It was not difficult to plan my minuscule meals because I wasn't really hungry. This condition does not last forever but for about a year and then the hunger returns. It just isn't as strong as before.

ROFLAO , GIVE HIM WHAT HE DESERVES

Here's the answer to the easy way out comment that stops them cold in their tracks: 1) I've had to go on a restrictive, liquids-only pre-op diet for 2 weeks. 2) I've had to re-lean how to eat again beginning with clear liquids, moving on to pureed, then soft foods, and finally regular food. 3) I can no longer use food to drown out anxiety, emotional pain, etc. I have to deal with it face to face so I have good days and bad days. 4) My stomach has good days and bad days and I don't always no which one it will be. Then I have to carefully eat so as not to overeat and become sick. Food must be carefully and mindfully chewed. 5) I have to work out 3-4x per week 6) I need regular vitamins for the rest of my life. * So tell me again, honey, how I took the easy way out.

My bill was 40,000+ my out of pocket was 150.00 which I paid today. Serving my country paid off tri-care. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app
