Teriffying experience blockage of food
GreenTealael replied to E.S's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Yes relax, Try and let food be just food now, with no control over you. Try to eat most things very moist and don't take unnecessary chances. Try to let go of those negative thoughts about the past and concentrate on the present and future -

I was getting this surgery by hook or by crook... I was not falling down at the mercy of insurance companies. I don't know who does but they should fight harder/smarter... -
Can we talk about staying hydrated?
GreenTealael replied to diabladepaz's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Early on it's harder but setting reminders and goals make it possible. All fluids count toward your hydration goal but water is superior and essential so you need the majority of it to be pure additive free water. I found drinking hot items like tea, coffee even broth went quicker than pure water making it easier to real the goal. I'm currently 10 months out and can drink like before surgery. -
WOW!!!

I have the sleeve and did not want the bypass. But I also knew myself well enough to decifer how much I needed to lose, other medical issues that would interfere, if had food issues that would hinder my progress, reflux/GERD, if I'm willing to have a revision in the future for any reason, etc. I think these are important considerations. I chose the best surgery for me

No pics but Food for the day: chicken tenders, ryvita crispbread, kind bar, almond and peanut butter, lentil and pea cheese puffs, no fresh vegetables (😢) but of course an endless supply of water, tea and even some coffee I had to eat on the go and these were my only options I didn't even feel like eating this... I think I'm sick thanks to the 5 million people in NYC who all seemed to be sniffling le sigh -
