African American Sleevers

kalimom, i have seen this statement a few times but i have no idea what it means, does "sits heavy" mean "im going to puke"? i mostly see it with respect to Pasta and rice and think is the sleeve a severe low carb diet for the rest of your life? at 7 mths out eating whatever you want is pretty impressive. i am thinking i will be terrified to eat for a bit. i had brain surgery a few years ago and eating made me throw up. i lost tons of weight because i was scared to eat, i think it was like 3 mths before i tried something other than canned fruit.< /p>

Great question' date=' I'm preop but I'm loading up on Protein now...locs falling out is not an option...hopefully someone can give us both some insight though.[/quote']

I am in the same boat. I loaded up on protein during my preop. I was sleeved on Monday June 3rd. I found in my research that as long as we get our proper amount of protein and Water, Hair loss should be minimal to nonexistent.

Sitting heavy means I can actually feel it sitting in my stomach sometimes it can cause nausea too but only if I eat too much of it. I don't do extreme low carbs it makes me cranky and I am half filipino I can't live without rice. I can eat pasta without issue but bread gives me the same feeling as rice unless it is toasted till crunchy.Eating what I want is of course relative to what I like to eat but I will try almost anything at least once.Spicy food makes me feel full very quickly and dense Protein I can only do a max of 3 ounces at one time.
