Feeling Weak
I am 5 months post-op. Start at 184 and now 145. Have had very few issues. However now feeling weak and less uhngry then before. At one point I was concerned because I could eat so much. Now full after less food. Has that happened to anyone? Drinking plenty of fluids and 45-60 grams protien most days. I do miss fruits and veggies but cant fit them in. Interestinly I could graze on junk all day. Go figure. Thanks ps- we are having heat wave and not sure if that is reason for weakness?

Is it enough?
I feel better now. the point is we are losing. I could not have done it with the sleeve.

Is it enough?
I also had surgery on Feb 11. I was 184. As of last week I was 166, 18 lbs lost. It is slow but it is steady. I think when you dont have as much to lose it takes longer.

1 month out
OMG, I am feeling the same way. I am 5 weeks out and feeling miserable today. I want to be able to enjoy food. I also made a scrambled egg. Ate 2 bits and then stomach upset. I am hoping it passes.

I eat & get full so fast & get hungry so fast
I feel the same way, hungry the sooo full then hungry. The hardest thing is not being able to drink. I hate waiting, finding it very difficult.

Puree phase dread
Just made shrimp salad, also egg white salad. I used a little relish and lite mayo. Very tasty and filling. I also boiled and pureed raspberries and blueberries. I use it with cottage cheese or plain. yogurt. Friendship cottage chees has 19 grams of protien in 4 oz. The fruit is so good and good for you.

still craving food even though grehlin should be all gone by now
I am always hungry too. It stinks. Working on small amounts every 2-3 hours. I can resist now before surgery that was impossible. Its a journey we are on. Of course food still looks and smells good. Food didnt change, we did. I am also surrounded by foodies,uggg

Puree phase dread
The tofu patties do stick together and even more after they bake. Tonight I tried black bean soup that I pureed. I must say it was good and filling. I also put lots of veggies in it for fiber. For lunch applesauce with cottage cheese. Alos bought canned crabmeat which is very soft--didnt care for that but you all may like it. Hang in there! I find I am hungry every few hours. Not like before surgery but it is hunger. I thought I wouldnt be hungry.
