How much exercising are you doing? Exercising will make you hungrier because you are already on very low calories and burning more will make you hungrier. You don't need to exercise to lose weight at this point.

Yeah I am not sure about seeds I seem to recall something about not until after 6 months? I could be wrong though best to check with your team

What are faja's ?

Are you using the same tape measure? I have 2 and they measure slightly different. I thought I had lost a couple cms until I measured with the other tape .

Thank you ?

I think you would benefit from a councillor. What we go through is huge. I had the very hard realisation that food was my best friend and then went through the grieving process it's tough. Do the best you can you are worthy and you can do this.

Honestly I didn't do low carb, low fat or low sugar anything and I do just fine

No there is a whole lot of other things going on you, will be fine

Don't feel to bad we all struggle with our old habits but we all seem to have a better awareness of them now ( sometimes) ?

Thank you, I normally bounce back well after illnesses and this is my first illnesses since being sleeved and it has kinda rattled me a bit. Trying my best to eat and drink but it's so cold here ATM so that makes drinking even less appealing..good to know someone out there knows what I am going through thanks ?

I am feeling very refluxy too ok maybe I am looking for some reassurance ? although I am not sick with covid anymore I feel yuck

I shouldn't laugh but surely a bagel isn't that big to start with, how far out from surgery are you ? And you did leave 2 bites behind so it wasn't the whole bagel. If it makes you feel any better most of us are surprised by how much we can eat. You should be able to eat a normal serving of most things. Those that say they can only eat a couple of bite per sitting are not the norm. Sure we all wish we could be a 2 bites and I am full but that's not the reality of it. Now cheerios they are slider foods foods that slid on down into our tummies and they never make us feel full so just be mindful of things like that .

Water is hard to get down, just get what ever fluids you can get down, I put pear juice in my water then started drinking powerade. If crystal lite is what works for you stick with it

Not really a question more of an observation and to see if anyone else experienced anything similar. So 10 days ago I got covid it wasn't to bad but I got a really sore throat lost my appetite and desire to drink mostly because it hurt so much but now I am having a hard time getting back into it. I can't stomach my morning coffee any more if fact I don't feel like drinking anything I feel nauseous most of the time and quite weak lack of food and drink. I am trying not to stress and I know it's still early days and most likely I am still recovering. I guess I am having a pity party but I want to feel better and get back to drinking and eating to help me feel better. On the plus side I have dropped 2 kg . Anyone else have covid effect them like this ?

Yeah I got excited when I saw that forum but you are right it not active at all

I had an opportunity to be with someone recently but I chickened out lol but yes when do you tell a potential partner about surgery

You are over thinking it as we all did, I had gerd before surgery I was on 40mg nexium as well as gaviscon liquid and tablets just to keep on top of it. I now take 20mg nexium and that's it and I am not sure I even need that but haven't been game to come off it yet. My surgeon said weightloss would help my gerd which it did. I have noticed the people who get gerd and revise to bypass also had a substantial weight gain as well. I have had zero issues with keeping food and drink down, had a few little omg I shouldn't have eaten/ drunk that so quick but after a few minutes it's all good and you don't do it again lol but honestly I a a week away from 12 months and I have zero problems. At the moment I am recovering from covid and I am suffering from lack of desire to eat or drink and have a bit of nausea but that's from covid not surgery.

I wonder how the OP is doing these days?

I had someone I hadn't seen for 17 years comment, you still look hot in jeans. I thought to myself you wouldn't have said that a year ago, in fact a year ago I would have been to ashamed to have met up with him

I am the same I feel like my weight loss has stopped my surgery was July 28 2021

Nachos from Californian Tacos Townsville, didn't eat much but was pretty good

There is nothing you can do but ride it out, I had super long hair and cut it but wish I didn't. But I most likely did the right thing. I have lots of new hair growth now and it's CURLY lol so that's new.

Muscle weighs heavy than fat so with your heavy exercise maybe you have gained muscle mass and still lost fat but the scales remain the same. hence jeans that didn't fit at 235 now fit at 250, muscle takes up less space than fat but weighs more if that makes sense?

Ok so my team had a 20,20,20 rule, chew your food 20 times, wait 20 seconds between each bite and anything you haven’t eaten after 20 mins doesn't get eaten. How far out from surgery are you? Drinking gets easier as you go along. It's easier to drink before food than after so if you are finding yourself being thirsty try having a drink 10 minutes before food but not a big drink but just enough so you aren't thirsty.and a tiny sip to wet your mouth after won't hurt either.

Well that's insane, I had a sleeve wasn't told to take any of these. It was recommended that I take a multivitamin and Vitamin D but it was never a must.
