Thank you for sharing, the reason I ask is last -
Loss of restriction from VSG to bypass
SleeverSk replied to Bella1506's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Oh, can I ask how come? You seemed to be doing so well -
Everyone is different, I suffered post surgery took about 3 months to come good. But you are aware of it, so you are a step ahead. It totally blind sided me

When does it get better?
SleeverSk replied to NotSoSkinnyMini's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds like you are either dumping or your blood sugars are way out of whack see your surgeon he may refer you to endocrinologist -

I think the last 2 commenters didn't read the original post 🤔 and just answered the title -
Not a pretty subject constipation help! please
SleeverSk replied to Merri Beth's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Try cloudy pear juice, it was a miracle worker for me. Half a glass every morning . Remember the reduced amount of food means reduced B M s. I am 18 months out sometimes I go every day for a few days then not again for 3 or 4 days I try not to stress about it comes when it comes 🙃 -
How do you search a topic in the forum to see if anyone else has the same or similar issue?

3 years POST OP bypass, had gallbladder removed and still in pain
SleeverSk replied to KarenLR75's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was going to say the same thing in fact I will, go back to the ER and or the surgeon who did the surgery sounds like you have an infection and that is serious -
I had a about of hunger induced anxiety today, it's hard to pick and even my friend who is naturally slim and eats little mentioned she had anxiety but we made a connection between when she hasn't eaten and anxiety. It's actually very interesting how our blood sugar level can mimic anxiety.

I know that feeling, I don't have any advice, just support to let you know your not alone.

SleeverSk replied to liveaboard15's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yep I am feeling the same saw some photos of myself from the last few days and thought darn it I am still fat, although no where near as big as I used to be in photos but I hearing you guys. I haven't had any weight loss since the 9 month post op mark either 😕. -

What do you wish you would have known more about before WLS?
SleeverSk replied to Bee kami's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I wish I knew that pretty much at the 6 to 9 mark month the weight loss stops. I also wish I knew about the possible hormone levels being throw out of whack and what that could do to your metal health. -
I find if I haven't had enough fluids I am hungry, can eat alot more and don't stay full for long

Super weak and dizzy at times
SleeverSk replied to Courtney*'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Go to the ER if you haven't already, you maybe having an allergic reaction to something. Major swelling in face and especially your neck is something that needs urgent medical attention. -
Food Before and After Photos
SleeverSk replied to GreenTealael's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yes, Vegemite, Marmite and promite are all great additions to meaty stews , soups and casseroles. They all taste similar but slightly different my pick of the 3 is promite, on hot toast lots of real butter and a smidge of promite -

Super weak and dizzy at times
SleeverSk replied to Courtney*'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, rest and Take it easy like everyone else has said you have had major surgery along with a drastic calorie intake reduction -
wait 3 months to eat carbs?!
SleeverSk replied to qtdoll's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
In hind sight I would say the longer you leave it to try to eat carbs and other foods and drinks (carbonated) that can cause weight issues the better. I was eager to " test" foods out early on and discovering I could eat and drink them easily with no issues slowed/stopped my weight loss earlier than it should have. I feel if I had have not tried them and went longer without them I would have had a better result. -
I will be interested to see what that shows. I had one and it came back that I had a MASS in my stomach and the back of my esophagus the radiologist wasn't sure if it was scar tissue from the surgery so I was referred back to my surgeon and he said it was however I am not sure he even saw the images but he said most likely scar tissue. it has been bothering me since then as the radiologist wanted an endoscope done but this hasn't been ordered by my GP because the surgeon said it was scar tissue. so yeah I am keen to know what other people's scans have shown

Night time and my fat brain wants to eat.
SleeverSk replied to Leo segovia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't think it's about going to bed hungry as I am sure all of us night time / afternoon snackers will agree we aren't hungry we just have this urge to put something in our mouths 😔 and something that tastes yummy. It's a struggle 😪 -
Night time and my fat brain wants to eat.
SleeverSk replied to Leo segovia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am snacking too, nightshift with not much on is always dangerous for me and then at home watching TV some habits are really hard to break -
Numbness everywhere
