I go thorough the same thing. Especially with Easter candy sitting right in front of my face. lol it's sooo hard. But I try to make the best choices I can. So far so good I guess!

For those of you who were sleeved the first week in march...how is eating going for you? I always feel sick after I eat. I've never thrown up but it's getting to the point where I don't even like to eat anymore. Nothing tastes good and I always feel nauseated after I do?

Was sleeved on March 6th. Eating is good for me. I have followed my post op diet closely. I have not had any nausea from surgery or after. I measure out my food. No more than 1/2 cup total and then I set a timer. If I am done with the food within the 30 minute timer I'm done. If the timer goes off before I'm finished, it take it away. So far, this is working for me. I was on 3 weeks of liquid and been about 10 days soft foods. Trying to eat very slow and make the best Protein choices first and Fiber second. So far, so good!

Good luck!

I was sleeved 7th march and I'm on the soft foods phase.

I hate eating, because when I do I feel sick and nauseated and drinking Water feels so heavy in my stomach. so I'm still struggling to get in my Protein and water.

I was sleeved on the 8th, and have no issue eating. As long as I eat slowly and chew my food thoroughly, I've been able to handle everything I've tried. If I eat too fast or too much, I get an uncomfortable feeling in my chest, but that's my sign to stop. I haven't felt nauseous. I'm sorry you're having trouble.

Was sleeved on the 18th and I try very hard to follow my program! So far I have been very blessed with no real side effects. I also have two shakes a day and the way my Dr. Has me eating is sure working for me. He reminds me that the more protein you eat or drink helps with your weight loss. Water can be a challenge for me but we came up with a good working solution. I like the fact that I can work side by side with my surgeon!!!! I chew my food 30 times and now it is becoming habit. I am so very grateful to have this second chance.......

What types of food are you eating now? And about how much? Also how do you tell when you are full? I'm wondering if I am eating too much.

A scrambled egg (olive oil....no Pam), yogurt (Greek non fat low sugar no fruit), low fat cottage cheese, Soups, deli meats, soft cheeses, super soft chicken, carrots....I chew 30 times per bite and I take 45-60 minutes per meal.

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
