    Off the Wagon

    Thank you. I guess I just need encouragement. I feel like the worst person ever and am so mad at myself

    Off the Wagon

    I had VSG in 2019. I went from 230 to 125 and now I am 195. I just feel SUPER defeated and worried I’ll never get the weight back off.
  4. Do you like the HidrateSpark? I’ve thought about getting one.
  5. I am experiencing the same thing right now. I need to lose about 30 pounds. It’s so hard.

    Setback

    I had VGS in March 2019. I was doing good but then got severely under weight. I have since done the exact opposite and about 30 pounds over weight. I’m terrified that I have stretched my pouch and that I’m never going to get the weight back off.

    Hunger vs. Nausea

    I am having trouble distinguishing between hunger and nausea. Suggestions? I’m also having trouble with solid foods. They make me sick even though I’m taking tiny bites and chewing everything to death.
  8. I’m one week post op and I’m trying my hardest to follow everything the dr’s office says but I’m terrified I’m going to stretch my pouch.

    Recent Surgery Diet Struggle

    They said that they’ve been checking the blood work of the people using the patches closely and everything has been fine. Same as if they had been taking oral vitamins.

    Recent Surgery Diet Struggle

    I am up walking. Went to the mall this weekend (although it exhausted me). I’m driving. No pain meds, No nausea meds (but have both in case I need them) I’m having trouble getting my vitamins down so I ordered patches from patchmd.com which was okayed by my doctor’s office. I was on clears the first week but I did go ahead and try some soft foods such as pancakes with sugar free syrup and baked & sweet potatoes just because I couldn’t do anymore broth. I just made sure that I chewed everything to death and took SUPER tiny bites. This week is full liquids so I can do protein shakes and things like that. I’ve had my moments where I had regret but already being in medium pants and shirts from 2-3xl makes it all worth it to me. I’m an RN so I have to take at least 4 weeks off because I can’t be lifting and pulling on anything over 10 pounds. *actually the normal foods haven’t bothered me it’s been the clear liquid stuff like the jello.

    Alikiinz, what did you have done?

    Recent Surgery Diet Struggle

    I’m eating sugar free and spoke to the RN at my dr’s office and she said it’s just my stomach trying to get back to normal but I just wondered what other people had experienced. She also said I could be extra sensitive to whatever sweetener they use instead of sugar which I looked and was aspartame. I had the gastric sleeve
  13. I just had my surgery this past Monday (March 11) and am concerned because everything I’m eating (which is basically just jello since I’m on clears) is running through me. I know that this is dumping syndrome. But does it get better the longer out you are from surgery and when you’re getting back to “normal” foods?
