Food question?



Recommended Posts

So Im three weeks out - been trying different solids (doc said ok as long as i chew to the point of puree). Ive been noticing too lately that sometimes Im feeling hungry.

I get in my Protein daily - i get in my Water. Im trying to stay under 800 cals a day for weight loss - ive been snacking on dill pickle spears the last couple of days. I tolerate them fine - and theyre zero cals/carbs. Anyone else snack on them?

Dill spears are what I nom on for when I just want something to eat with no repercussions to my diet.

I'm not sure if you can eat these yet but these look pretty good and have some great stats:

8.2 calories, 0.5 carbs, 1.25 Protein per bite

My tummy doesn't like acid, but if they don't bother you, enjoy!

I thought my sleeve didn't like acid either. I was getting really really mild reflux, more annoying at times than pain.

I got some apple cider vinegar after reading about it on here - and it works. Mild reflux gone.

That fact that I have it in a shot glass, bang it on the table like it's a tequila shot is a whole 'nother issue.

Oh man do those sound delicious... I wonder if they'd bake in a toaster oven?

Can't wait to try these! My 3 yr old and I were enjoying cauliflower crust pizza before my sleeve. Never even thought about making minis! Thanks for sharing!

I am three weeks out also, and I am doing good getting everything I need,but I am starving all the time. I am sure some of its mental, but if I don't eat every three hours, I start throthing and it drives me crazy. I am already eating solids, just not meat. I am afraid I am taking in too many calories

Looking at your ticker you're obviously doing something right! :)

3 weeks out, that's a great lose. Nothing wrong with eating every three hours - I do. I don't get hungry, but I don't like the empty feeling I get either.

I don't really feel physically hungry except for first thing when I wake up. Every other time I have been craving something, it's been head hunger, which (so far) seems easier to fight than before.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
