Hmmm that may be a good appetite curb for me at night...is it sweet? I know sometimes drinking something warm helps w hunger

Very hard not snacking as I guess I started to get into a habit. Nipping it in the bud. Have an appt with my surgeon (follow up) today. I’m going to ask him. Going to make an appt w my NUT too.

I’ve just recently started to feel the “hunger” coming bk. Scares me too. Also recently cut out snacking (even though the snacks were protein) so I’m not sure if the “hunger “ is from that or not. I don’t have a true stomach growl or anything...just the feeling of wanting to eat more now that I haven’t had since my surgery. Sucks.

What are Macros?

I use My Diet Coach (free app)

Never thought about how I could be eating around my sleeve. Scary.

🎉No snacking anymore for me. 🎉

I signed up for My Diet coach and am going to log my info

Great idea I’ll try that.

I heard that too. In my coffee I’m gradually switching from sweet n low to truvia. Right now I’m at two truvia and one sweet n low. I use to be three sweet n low. I did read to try and stay away from artificial sweeteners. Today I am logging what I eat. I stopped doing that and I’m going to start back up. Hoping that helps me not snack. I think the snacking is more habit bc it happens mainly when I get home from work while cooking dinner and later in the evening.

Thanks everyone for the advice! I love this app. Everyone is always so helpful

I haven’t been going to the dietician. I need to go...

Congrats!!!!

When people ask a nosy question just say to them "Why do you ask?" What are they going to say ? "I'm super freaking nosy!"

I had the sleeve with Hiatal Hernia repair. I didn't have the cramping that you are having but I did have the heartburn which I did not have prior to surgery. I am almost six months out and I don't have heartburn hardly at all now. Let your doctor know but I wanted to tell you people told me it would get better and for me it did. Hope it does for you too!

I can't eat soup...burned out from liquid phase😝 I'm almost six months out lol

Wow that's AWESOME!! Congrats!!

I am almost 6 mos post op and my biggest fear is one day going bk to where I began

For those vets have yall been able to keep most of the weight off?

Me too! I want to get to that point where I can wear shorts and look like that in them!!!

Wow! I don't see any loose skin either! You look great!!

I'm 44. My advice...start working out w weight training asap. It will help make it not as bad.

That's awesome for you!!! Only 40 pounds left for you to go?!! That's awesome!!

Losing that much is great and I look so much better in clothes but geez naked not so much. At 44 your skin doesn't bounce bk and I haven't helped it much by not working out like I should. So if I were you try to do light weight training to build muscle so you do t become saggy. My "girls" are deflated and very very sad. BUT once I lose that last 30 pounds I'm going to give myself a goal of keeping it off for a year. So once I hit my goal weight I'll count 12 mos from then and if I keep it off and maintain (I WILL!!) then I'm treating myself to some new breasts!!

I was sleeved 7/23 and I'm 165 now. So just under 6 mos he o lose the 74lbs. my goal is 135 so I have 30 more to go😜
