How far out? I have not noticed it yet. Keep fluids up , and snacks/meals on scedual , maybe that might help ? I noticed growling feeling the first few weeks , i am only 7 weeks out so do not know what to expect past this point.

How is this in your life? Stress causes my blood preasure to go up, it was high anyway, but it went dangerouslly high a week before surgery due to some things that went on. Mine is normal now 7 weeks post, no longer on meds.

That is the most dramatic thing I have heard today. " Manager your waitress wanted to make sure my food was good, please retrain her as a point of urgency" Funny I am sorry but the waitress is not responsible for every humans feelings to a simple question she asks every single person on a daily basis if she notices they are not eating much food, as most of the time it means the food is not good. How was she to know this was not the case for this one person lol cut the woman some slack, she was just trying to do a job to a good standard.

Dont have to thank me! I would have felt exactly the same, and I would have reacted less diplomatically so she is lucky it was not my picture she was commenting on or it would have ended differently lol. Keep up the good work! I hate all this bitchy competition thats covered up with " hey I'm a vet" I do not care vet or newbie gives no one the right to come on someones thread and make it some kind of campagn for their view that is not what this post is about, she could have rolled her eyes and created her own post lol You are inspiring

I am just curious.. Post surgery, like you may have people around but just feel unusually lonely? ( By Unusually lonely, I am meaning you did not feel like this prior)

There is a difference to vomiting naturally and actually forcing your self to vommit which causes the stomach to contract alot more aggressively than just one little vomit, your nurse was not saying this wth a deliberate purger in mind. It is not the same. I can 100% feel the difference from a vomit that sure causes abit of pressure, and a deliberate purge which puts a hell of alot more strain on the body. The frequency of just vommiting casually and the frequency of forcing your self to puke after almost every meal is also a variable in perhaps the fact damage can be done. Can you imagine the amount of acid from regularly purging, is not the same the little amounts from vommiting every now and again. Thats just my experiance I am no expert in anyone elses purging lol.

Hi , I don't know if you saw my post, but I was bulimic many years. I ended up doing it once recently it was like a reflex to feeling full, but I did not over eat either. Yes you 100% could be hurting your new stomach, acid etc. You need to speak to your surgeon asap. And your doctor. You need to get back in with a therapist to discuss what may be triggering this for you , we sometimes think its nothing but actually it is something that may not even be at the for front of your mind.

To be honest the general view on here can be quite suffocating. I would love to know what your daily eating is like?

OMG no need to be rude I had not cought up yet jesus christ. I will not ask you anything in the future, incase you may have happened to answer the same exact question to another human being in this world. This thread is so negitive. I am leaving it. i felt bad for you but your abit rude too. I was just curious! Why post your big post if you are not going to want questions? All the best.

How come it says your a bypass patient, not a sleeve patient ?

Sorry who was this to? You must have read something wrong. I said " I WILL be following my plan, I did not say the american plan was BETTER neither did I say I was SO SURE.. but in my 3 week liquid diet my plan mentioned icecream and puddings. I do not see the american plans allowing this. I chose not to have them. I am following my plan does not mean i have to eat everything on my plan. I pick what i feel I am okay to eat. , as I am still wondering were I said I won't be following mine My first sentence was " but i obvcourse will be following my surgeons plan ". I am in constant contact with my NUT and when I see something on here I am curious about i email and ask about it. I do not think ignoring the part saying i can have icecream will be detrimental to my journey. Thanks. My NUT is already aware I have chosen not to have certain foods that trigger cravings for me. the plan is not static. It is adaptable , and i adapt it with my Nuts permission when I doubt something I have seen , or feel something will not work for me. Not eating some things is not , not following the plan. Other than that I am following the plan and I have had great success so far. I am working hard , and doing just fine.

Sleeve: Most sleeve patients do not feel hunger ghrenlin is removed. I am 7 weeks , no hunger, have to remind myself to eat.

Sorry to interpupt. I'm a July sleever but not many who eat like you. Who doesn't weigh etc. So I just want to follow your journey

No no. Dont apologise . I was just saying I personally didn't find her Nasty. No conflict here. I just felt bad for op. Me and my sluggy weight loss ..I don't expect much lol. But I'm also less weight than op. So so much contributes. no conflict I promise. Your lovely

This is not about what is realistic. It is not the OP to tell others what to expect. Your first comment was " its unrealistic" no weldone or congrats. I think saying you were happy for her in the original comment not after she called you out. You can not put the responsibility on the OP if people do not know realistic outcomes. You want many to succeed but not those who lose like the OP? Only those who lose slower or more average get a weldone? I am a believer that all deserve a weldone, 1 lb or 40lbs. But that is just me. Bringing one down to prove to others this is not usual? I think its clear it is not average and you should trust that people can research themselves. Even 28lbs in 2 weeks is unrealistic FOR ME. I do not go round commenting such on each weightloss post lol. I am off this post. Have a nice day. Maybe you can say weldone next time aswell as inform people of the 'average'. WELDONE OP We are all working at it , and no matter how small or how big we all deserve a congrats on this journey

I would just have a sleeve if i was under 300, which I did, have you got any worries. I already have issues taking vits so id be really sick by now if i went for bypass. but I KNOW it works for some

So.. What made you feel you should switch? This post needs more information, there are big reasons people decide sleeve is not for them, so who knows.

I do not think the original poster is being nasty, she is being told she has her dates wrong and all sorts. I wont be posting my victories on here, id react the same if i was ripped to shreds just because your 10even 20 years in the game doesnt mean they know it all lol

You did not seem happy. its quite discouraging to see negitive posts on posts that should be full of support, we all know people lose at different rates, she should not hide a way because she is one of the ones who experiance rapid weightloss.

That is very rude why post at all? I am 7 weeks out and 28lbs down. Yes unrealistic for me to lose that amount but do not feel bitter when someone does. It depends how much you have to lose etc, she is working hard so why be rude?

Are we meant to guess why your thinking of changing or.. Is that to follow in another post? I have had a sleeve , feel free to ask specific questions, other than that I am not sure what you are asking sleeve suits some people , bypass suit some people. etc.

I did not find undwear comfy so brought them but did not wear lol , but your all set best wishes. i am 7 weeks post and i hated the liquid phase. i prefered salty things to sweet shakes

Goodlck - 7 weeks in and so happy

If you stick to the plan your liver will shrink fine, do not worry about that

Hi Congrats on making this step. had a sleeve 7 weeks ago. I was so bad with my anxiety before i went in i wrote a note to my children incase i died. I am soooo happy with this sleeve honestly, everything about it , everything people complained about when i was researching i love. " oh i cant barely eat, oh i cant barely enjoy my meal" . have had many years of enjoying my meal lol yes i get full so fast but i needed this. or i would get bigger and bigger. I am here if you have any questions when it was done i woke up like " are you going to do this or what? " lol all that build up and it was done .. so fast lol
