    Circlesis got a reaction from JohnGraySmiley in Sleeve to DS   
    I am 4 weeks out from revision to DS. For me things in that department got more normal at the 2ish week mark after starting mushy food/ purée.

    Circlesis got a reaction from ANewJourneyAwaits in Coronavirus: to mask or not to mask?   
    @numbheart please cite your source. Also curious if you think cloth or other masks cause cancer as well.

    Meantime I will be over here just being *virtuous* around other people.

    Circlesis got a reaction from Notwhatyousee in Duodenal switch -Do you physically feel different and what about sex?   
    During the healing period you will feel a little odd in the gut area but after several weeks, no.

    Circlesis got a reaction from GreenTealael in Just Had DS - feel no different.   
    By reducing the calories absorbed from food. I revised because I had some regain 6 years after sleeve.

    By the way, butter is not going to hurt you with DS because most of the fat you eat will not be absorbed. In fact, you want to eat some because otherwise things will be way too dry.

    Were you able to do much research on the DS separately from talking to the doctor? It is important to understand exactly how it works.

    In my experience, that has not been the case. I have had the sleeve, and was later revised to DS. There is no food that puts me on the toilet immediately. I do get gas more frequently but that’s about it.

    Sometimes these surgeons oversell.

    Can you be more specific about what you mean by test the waters?

    If you mean by eating a piece of fried chicken, I don’t think you can safely assume you will have a massive reaction to deter you. I guess it is possible but I would not count on it.

    After a couple of years you will be able to eat a significant amount at a time. At that point it becomes much easier to regain weight however. Research long term out comes.

    Carbonated drinks don't stretch your stomach. It's a myth.

    As long as you think of "eating healthy" as a chore that needs to be done, this will most likely not change. Do you like the "healthy foods" that you eat? If not find foods that are healthy enough which you truly enjoy and see if that makes a difference.
    Does that somehow feel like "doing penance for your sins"... or something like that?
    Cure you from exactly what? From having cravings? From having "bad habits"? From wanting "bad foods"? From "being the bad girl" in regards to food/exercise?
    People will test their boundaries and stretch them sooner or later. Yes, I know, I know... people swear they won't do it like never again and will always be the good dieting gal/guy from now on after WLS and will never fall from grace forever and blah blah blah - but I've seen too many people falling flat down on their faces with that approach to think of it as a feasible for the majority of us. I know I'm not one of these saints, lol.
    Unfortunately we don't have that much old-timers on here. Like five years out and more. What we have to say is not always to the liking of the n00bs but after a few years they might chime in with us. Seen that happen more than once.
