You Know You're A Sleever When...



Recommended Posts

With each day that passes since my surgery on 8/1, I'm realizing that my life really, really, really is changing! Today i giggled at myself as I reflected on a few of the changes. Please feel free to join in!

You know you're a sleever when...

1. You look forward to eating your Gummy vitimins because it's almost like eating candy

2. You walk through the grocery store and nothing looks appealing

3. You get to the check-out at the grocery store and the only thing in your cart is Protein.< /p>

3. You can't find anything in your closet that fits and this makes you SMILE :Ds

4. You're thirsty but you can't drink because if you do you will have to wait 10 more minutes for lunch

5. You're panties don't slide down below your muffin top anymore

HAHAHA!!! What a crazy ride the last 20 days have been.

1. You order an appetizer portion of anything AND still need a "go" container.

2. You sometimes forget to eat because you're just not hungry any more.

3. You can handicap Protein Bars based on calorie count, carbs, and grams of Protein.< /p>

4. You know it's time to stop eating when your nose starts running, you sneeze, or some other really strange signal.

6. You're only eating 500 cals a day.

7. Sometimes you only eat Soup throughout the day.

8. You're addicted to your scale, and you giggle a little every time you step on it.

9. You ACTUALLY know what the meaning of VSG is.

10. You log your entire life onto MyFitenessPal every day.

WHEN:

...you're at a birthday celebration and even though you are the one slicing the cake for everyone,you don't want or eat any of it!

...you feel like a lion or tiger on the hunt or something because all you do is eat meat/protein.

...the scale you previously never owned, is now something you do morning, noon, and night. If it goes up, you have to restrain yourself from tossing it through the window.

...when you're in a nasty stall, you accuse your surgeon of being inept, and removing the wrong organ.

....you load your plate because you're ravenously hungry (it CAN happen;) ), only to take a few bites and declare how full you are and are nauseated by the site of the remaining food....

You look at the menu and decide what to order by what is the SMALLEST entree rather than the way you used to looking for the LARGEST entree.

You have little packs of nuts stored in your car, desk, purse and moms house, in case you get hungry and need a quick meal.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
