I don't eat 1145 lol it's set automatically. -
No problem drinking fluids
dreamingsmall replied to Hhs1078's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Please do your research. How much liquids you can consume has no bearing on how much solid you can consume. Dense protein will cause restrictions. Liquids don't.this is in the basic level of research. Your sleeve is fine. Just be great full your not struggling not use it as another reason to worry. -
No problem drinking fluids
dreamingsmall replied to Hhs1078's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congratulations. What is your actual concern ?You saw your stomach so what could be wrong ? You don't have an issue with fluids that leads to alot of people being dehydrated and re admitted into hospital.. I would be thankful. I don't know why. Probably because all humans are different and rexover differently I struggled unbearably. Some people have issues with fluids some don't. -
No change in hunger
dreamingsmall replied to Patrick powers's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
First month I was painfully hungry. It was part of my healing. Yes some people never feel hunger some people do. I don't mind . I rarely feel hunger now 4 months out. But when I do I think I could eat a horse. Two bites later I'm stuffed..so that's the difference..feeling hunger isn't the be all and end all. It's okay -
Why would anyone be mad at you ? And hmm I'm not sure what could cause it but keep an eye on it and perhaps get it checked if it continues.

Stuck at weight
dreamingsmall replied to Lifechanger2137's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Any more information? How long have you stalled ? What's your daily eating like ? What are your stats and how long post ? Stalls can be for no reason. But also they can be a reason so the answer depends on the Individual..but knowing the reason makes it easier to fix if there is one. -

What do you eat a day and how much -
stretching out the sleeve
dreamingsmall replied to Leo85's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How would you know your eating to much ? It's very simple. Weighing your food. Then eating more than you weigh.( If say your team say eat under 4 ounces) That is how you know. You shouldn't eat more if you feel you can. It's a sure thing your fine if you don't go over your recommendation. If you have no recommendation protein first veggies second you will be fine -

You don't need to go onto protein shakes you need to practice the basics again if PROTEIN first no more than 4 ounces. Whats your daily eating like ? -
Why did I gain weight
dreamingsmall replied to barwick411's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Are you getting enough fluids in ?? It's not fat you gained so don't worry. I wouldn't even be weighing this early as your still healing. -
Similar starting weight. I was told light weights lose slower generally and may stall more. As we have less to lose. Keep up the good work.

I am fully aware of that. I'm making it clear that the 4 ounces rule does not apply to liquids. -

Average weight loss: worth it? Starting to feel discouraged...
dreamingsmall replied to Lauriep's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That's not how all doctor's do it. Excess weight for me was calculated by what weight I'd be at 24 Bmi . Subtract my current surgery day weight. Then 70percent of that. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app -
Average weight loss: worth it? Starting to feel discouraged...
dreamingsmall replied to Lauriep's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
How much do you weigh ? And what do you eat per day ? Your weightloss is great. Some lose faster depending on size. I srarted off 244 now 186lbs so almost 60lbs in 4 months. I'm sure it would have been more if I tracked all the time. But my team don't require me to. I don't exersise. Some may lose slower on the scale when building muscle.
