Loving My Sleeve This Tahnksgiving!

I am still full from the little bit I ate today! I would have had two or more servings I had a tiny tiny tea cup saucer and I am still full! I LOVE IT! I was able to ENJOY the food as well!

Same here :) The sleeve served it's purpose today for sure. Money well spent( or invested as my husband put it). But I love how I felt in charge :wub:

This was my first Thanksgiving with the sleeve as well. What a difference it made. Not only was I full after a small amount but I noticed some of my old favorites weren't quite as good. The carb-heavy stuffing and mashed potatoes didn't really interest me as much as the turkey with a little cranberry sauce. I know what I was thankful for today!

Im worried because I am not feeling full. I know my sleeve is new but thought I should feel full..

You aren't on solid food are you? Once you eat denser foods you'll fill up faster.

I was also the same before I got to solid foods! To be honest I thought my sleeve was not right...it was done wrong etc...spent 13k on nothing! Once I over ate (Solid foods) I knew it was real. Today o ly a month and a couple days out ...i am happy i did it...

I have lost 24 lbs. since surgury! I was expecting it to melt off. I went to my post op month visit yesterday and the doc said I am doing fine.I am right where I am supposed to be. I was depressed because i thought it was going to be faster. 20 LBS a month though is great. I also did that without walking or exercising. I am much more mobile but am still a bit heavy for the daily routine. I have been my own encouragement...everybody is different. I plan to go to a support group next week as well.
