Help, I Think I Eat To Much!



Recommended Posts

I got sLeeved oct 9th and I can eat up to 3 oz. Of salmon in one sitting. I have a problem slowing down, and really concentrating on the food. I wasn't starving. But my instructions are to begin eating soft mushy foods, 1 oz meat, 1 oz. Veggies, fruit.< /p>

Is it possible to eat that much in one sitting? I am doing pretty good about no liquids before or after and if I wait a bit, I actually feel full. I haven't thrown up at all, just worried!

I was sleeved Sept 6th, different foods I can eat more of especially softer type foods. I would make sure that I was getting enough protien in first before eating anything else. A typical day for me is

RTD shake for Breakfast

chicken noodle Soup for lunch w/o the noodle or chili or refired Beans

maybe a snack of cheese stick / or a prune / or grapes

2 oz of some type of meat for dinner and maybe a tblspoon of vegtables or sweet potatoe

this comes out to about 70 protien under 30 carbs and about 700 calories

also I bought these little 1/2 cup containers, so it really helps with Portion Control, fill the cup and never eat more than that if you can even eat that much. I also eat with a baby spoon and it really really helps .makes it seem like your eating allot more than you are and slows you down. :rolleyes:

Ok I don't feel so bad. I drink a protien shake for Breakfast, i also have a cheesestick snack. Then for lunch, usually 1/2 cup or less of tuna salad (I should try more soups!). dinner I will have to lessen my portion of meat and add real veggies. I always have SF Popsicles and Jello for evening Snacks.< /p>

I also love the saltine crackers! I was wondering if I can try pita crackers or those Milton multigrain new baked crackers?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
