We were invited to a friends house for dinner today, Spaghetti and Meatballs. I have had Pasta since being sleeved and it wasn't an issue. I knew I wasn't going to have any issues. Well, I was wrong! The pasta at my friends house was not the whole wheat kind that I am accustomed to using at home. I usually order whole wheat pasta when I am at a restaurant. Anyway, I ate a little bit around 4:30 pm and I have felt uber-stuffed ever since. I hate this feeling! I had a very small portion size and I feel like I just had a pre-sleeve Thanksgiving meal. UGH!!!!! Well, at least now I know.

Darn... I think I'm gonna make spaghetti squash soon. Do u think it was noodles? Sauce? Combo of all the above?

It was prob the noodles. I usually eat only the meat and sauce.

You know- Pasta always did that to me when I had a full-sized stomach! I always felt over full and just kinda bad. I haven't tried it and I'm 4 moths out almost, and... sounds like I might not. I've got some Quinoa pasta I might give a try one day.

I couldn't eat more than a couple of bites of Pasta, rice, or untoasted bread till I was nearly 8 months out. I still can't eat a lot of them, but I can eat enough to be a small serving now.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
