I agree with being kind to our sleeves. I regret so much what I have done ... And it makes it hard to control after you get into the habit of overeating again.

Whatever happened it was because I was really overeating, pushing food down.

I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but said behavior could lead to bulimic tendencies later on. I understand how bad the vomiting sensation makes us feel. Eating just under sleeve capacity will help.

Those 2 links that you posted is what I believe to be true. I also believe that over time the stomach empties faster, which makes it possible to eat more soon after completing a meal. I guess the moral of the story would be to be kind to your sleeve and not over do it when it comes to eating.

I feel like there is some merit to this. Maybe more stomach acids? I though about taking a PPI for a few days just to see what happens. I stopped taking them long ago. If you stop the acid the food might take longer to digest? I will test that starting tomorrow. I am 17 months out, and I can eat ALOT more! I find that it can go through me much faster. I still eat and then get full, but the time in which I am hungry again is much shorter than before.

Yashi, you have posted several times now that you vomit daily? This concerns me. Are you vomiting because you are eating too much which results in vomiting, are you physically making yourself vomit, or is there some sort of another problem? You should definitely not be doing this, and I would like to be able to offer you some assistance, but need to understand your issues a bit better first. If you prefer, you can respond to me via pm.

You need to measure your portions then and cut back on sizes.

Making yourself vomit will do lots of damage. How much do you eat in a sitting?

I am with you on Doxieville. I dont think it is possible. If you ate that much food, you had to feel miserable....Just calm down, and restart the process...it will work if you let it. Watch your portion sizes, and get back on track...I know you can do it! Stay encouraged...everyone falls but you just have to get back up and try again! Keep us posted on what the doctor in Usa says! Good luck

Honestly, I'd go back to the basics. Ms. diva has a boot camp, or pouch test, or something like that. It helps people kinda reset themselves. I'm sure someone else can give you more info.

And yes, our stomachs can hold more as we get further out, which is why it's so important to do our homework and learn how to eat correctly during the time when we are restricted.

Good luck!

How do you get back to the basics?

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
