Perspectives on Losing Fast & Slow
GreenTealael replied to GreenTealael's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
There are a lot of different people here doing this for a lot of different reasons , some are more time sensitive. My expectations were not unrealistic, my frustration comes from needing to reach a certain point by a deadline agreed on by my practitioner -
My local Sams club stopped carrying them?!?! They never had the Cookies and Cream variety... Anyone still able to find these flavors? HW 270 SW 238 CW 188 VSG 11/7 [emoji471][emoji471][emoji471]

First time i ever thought about this but I take various forms of vitamins (and meds) throughout the day. Some are gummies. I tend to drink after as im taking other forms of vitamins also. Is this considered eating and drinking?

Chronic Nausea--No Medical Reason
GreenTealael replied to Arizona25's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So sorry this is happening , have you tried motion sickness bracelets like the ones used on boats etc ? How about only eating and drinking cool/room temp/warm things? How about keeping a heating pack on your abdomen? Are you often cold? It may just be your body in a state of unhappy adjustment but not illness. You may need to look at out of the box solutions.

Snacking at the Movies
GreenTealael replied to IveGotThePower's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Im almost certain that they are adding some addictive agent to theater popcorn because of the way i react when i smell it. Have not touched it in almost a 10 months now. I dont crave any foods when smelled like this. Its insane. Anyone know of any good conspiracy theories on the subject? Its not like coffee and chocolate which are addictive, its corn... -

I don't have a problem cooking foods I can't eat , the question was if it was in fact a food I could not eat. I did eat some, not a slippery slope because I doubt I will invest the energy and resources to make it again when I could just eat boiled eggs or beans lol

Nine months post Gastric sleeve
GreenTealael replied to Gigi_c's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I just attended a support group and a someone asked how to prevent and reverse regain and here were some things mentioned: Start planning and timing your meals again Dont eat and drink within 30 mins of each other Hydrate for the majority of your day (calorie and sugar free) you cant over eat if youre drinking No random snacking, this is grazing and leads to weight gain Weight yourself weekly, youll always know whats really going on Attend support groups Mental health is as important as physical, dont neglect it Any major changes call your Doctor immediately -
I agree, it feels like a conspiracy and dont even get me started on the undergarment industry...

Welcome to the team!

Agree with the other posters, can you make your own meals? Also what kind of meals are you eating? Not all calories are equal in quality. What about water/liquid intake? Are you over 64oz of liquids a day ? How are your bowel movements? Have you reached out to your surgical team ?

Stopped losing after 8 weeks
GreenTealael replied to Apple203's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Also no one mentions food output but your bowel movements have to be VERY regular. You can store pounds and pounds of waste if you are not excreting it properly.
