Food Before and After Photos
sillykitty replied to GreenTealael's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Good news is, once you're at a normal weight you'll get a lot less questions. And if I do get asked, my answer "I have a small appetite" doesn't get the side eye that it did when I was heavy. -

It is definitely weight/density thing for me. I can eat a large volume of salad. It's what I'll order if I don't want comments about how much I (don't) eat. But anything dense, it's a pretty exact 4 oz limit. How do I know? Because a frozen burrito is my perfect feeling of full 😂 -

oh that's a super clever order! I have a soft spot for Taco Bell 😍 -
I can only speak to Mounjaro, but it actually doesn’t cause a drop in blood sugar, that’s not how it works. Hypoglycemia is only a risk if you’re also taking Insulin Secretagogues or Insulin. Good luck with however you choose to tackle regain!

I do too, I just had higher hopes with the goat cheese and all 😂 I'm eating them for breakfast because they're better than anything at the hotel buffet 🤷♀️ -
Regain happens! It's good you are addressing it now, and have relatively little weight to lose. I suggest looking into some of the new drugs that are being used off label for weight loss, like Mounjaro and Ozempic Good luck!

Back to the travel grind .. airport lounge food I only counted 1/2 the bagel because the side I ate was significantly thinner than the other. -
I have hit a Plateau...

This exactly. This won’t be your last stall. They happen. Just stick to your plan and it will break. -
I found B12 supplements were critical a couple months post op. First I got them from my WLS surgeon during follow ups. Then I switched to sublingual pills once a week

I had been craving Chinese food so badly after returning from vacay, finally ordered in last night I have zero faith in the accuracy of this nutritional info. I threw in some oil because that was definitely undercounted -

Cheated for the 1st time since surgery
sillykitty replied to SleeveDiva2022's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As a vet, I'd like to kindly suggest you reframe your thinking. There's no cheating, there are no bad foods. You're still allowed to eat and enjoy food. It's all about balance. You don't need to feel guilty or do an extreme work out to make up for anything. You're going to need to find a sustainable way of eating and relating to food. Realistically, you likely ate under 1500 calories0 calories -
Head Hunger vs Actual Hunger
sillykitty replied to BlessedMomma91's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree with @KimA-GA, that real hunger and head hunger are very distinct for me. Real hunger, then most food sounds good, healthy food included. Head hunger is specific foods, like pizza or chocolate, and healthy food isn't appealing. -

Dr. V has been pretty discredited by "retiring" from bariatric surgery and then shilling MLM snake oil -

A couple months back a taco stand opened up in the evening on the corner near my house. I had resisted until last night. Now I'm in trouble because it was the best al pastor taco I've had in a minute, and it's just a 3 minute walk 😩
