Gaining weight - experience of a decade
CherokeeGirl replied to Gess's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I too am at the 10 year mark and I've gained it all back!!! I feel horrible, can't breath if I move around too much. I'm 70 years old now and I'm going to talk to my Dr as to what I can do -

I am now 70 years old. I had a sleeve done in 2014, I have slowly gained all of my weight back! Do you think it would be safe to have it again at my age? I'm thinking about talking to my Dr about it

Motivational changes early on
CherokeeGirl replied to dani710's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
i have had a lot issues and just now leveling out. The slleve will NOT make you thin. As you've probably heard before...it's a tool to help you, but you have to help yourself. -
Does anyone else hate the way they feel after they eat
CherokeeGirl replied to Momma_D's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yep...with you on this! I have resigned myself to the fact that food is no long fun....no anticipation of something good cooking, or enjoying a great meal with everyone...nothing tatse the same, or as good and eating is now really just PIA....but, I'll deal with it....I need to get healhty...but I hate that middle of your chest uncomfortable thingie -

My body feels awful...
CherokeeGirl replied to Overcomer_Rev1211's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh sweerie...been there. What flavor shake? I have mixed berry I get at walmart, I put a container of blueberry greek fit & light yogurt in mine as well as a few squirts od berry Water Enhancer....still not the best, but it ups the Protein level..i am not crazy about powdered shakes either but really can;t afford to buy all premade. Just gotta do the best you can....for first few weeks it was bad for me, i had complications...i looked like a ghost, people kept telling me how awful I looked, I wasn't getting enough protein for my body....and i was...am so sick of water, which i used to love...I could scream. put something you like in it, I put a couple of tablesoons of powered milk..I like it sometimes i put carnations canned milk in it...just a bit.....and there a lot of different enhacers you can buy. I'm still dealing, it's such a learning process. ::::hugs:::: -
