  1. I was just having a discussion about this today. One of my patients brought me homemade pound cake and I fell totally off of the wagon. I talked with my therapist today that sleeved or not, I have disordered eating. I'm so tired of dieting...I feel like I think about eating 24-7. Sorry, I hijacked your thread, but the answer for me is no. :)


  2. So I've started low carb (hx of diabetes) and l like it. However for my bday a coworker made a homemade red velvet cake. I had a normal size piece...my heart started racing and about a half hour later I crashed and had to sleep during lunch. No caffeine that morning. Anyone had this? I think that's my body yelling at me.


  3. I'm thinking you might lose some if they're an m. A British show about breasts said that cup size D ( I think it was d) was the equivalent to two 5 lb of sugar. They put small breasted women in this bra and put sticking filled w sugar in them. They complained of back pain and awkward balance. They also had to get used to the looks:) I'm a 36 f and I love the girls.


  4. I agree with Cheri. I'm two years out and PROOF that it doesn't touch a true food addiction. food addiction has nothing to do with hunger or fullness. That's what the sleeve promotes. If you're truely an addict, you'll need extra support. I say this, all in love, because I know, if you're like me, you'll have the sleeve done anyway :) However....go to groups and talk with people so you know that it's a lifelong struggle.

    That being said, reading all of this I realize it may be time for therapy again...I too dream about food, smell it, want to taste it and eat around my sleeve. At about 8 months out, your stomach isn't inflammed and has more room. I rarely eat until totally full but eat around the sleeve often.


  5. I'm with each and every one of yall. I'm going back to the basics....water..but not a half hour before or after food. I am doing HIGH Protein but carbs in fruit and veggies. I am slowly exercising again (my nemisis) and I'm finding out my slider foods are not like others. Even though fruit is healthy, it slides right through and I'm hungry soon after. So I'm pairing it with ricotta.
