OMG how was I able to eat a whole Big Mac!!!!!! Why do I do this to myself!!!! I didn't feel full, I didn't vomit, and I don't feel sick.... It took me half an hour but I was able to do it! I was sleeved on 1/8/13.... By now I should feel the restriction should I?? Also, yes, poor choice of food but I have to admit, it was delicious!!!!!!

As a pre-op, this scares me.

I don't want to be able to eat a whole Big Mac after surgery. I hope my restriction is better. My highgest weight was 410lbs and I feel this surgery is necessary to save my life. I know there may be moments when I'll eat a hamburger but I hope it is only a bite or two. Otherwise, this surgery is kind of pointless for me. It just scares me to think I'd be able to eat that much. I don't know?

I wouldn't worry about this. I mean you do have to make good choices. The sleeve won't MAKE you eat good food.. But it will help with amounts.

Just like everything you could cheat it if you really wanted to.. But at four months I don't think I could eat a Big Mac .

Why would you want to eat a Big Mac after everything you through to even get the surgery?

To the OP some tough love here. You need to pull up your big girl pants and stop this nonsense. Did you get 85% of your stomach removed to go and eat a BIG MAC? You have weight to lose and will NOT be successful by doing this. Join a support group if you need to. Call your NUT. Please get a grip and stop this sabotage. I truly wish you all the best and success, you can do this!!!

At Anniemay, sometimes things just happen... You think you will be perfect n not eat something you shouldn't after surgery? Then you are fooling yourself. There will be a day when you will want to eat something n trust me if you are going through a lot of things in your life you will eat it!!! @ Amazon, I actually belong to a great support group but thanks for the suggestion I will take it Into consideration.

WOW....I'm scratching my head!! At almost 17 months out, there is no way I could eat an entire Big Mac. Now, I haven't actually tried, but once in a great while I eat 1/2 of a hamburger from In N Out.

I didn't even try ANYTHING from a fast food place until I was well over 4 months out and when I did, I couldn't stand it. Even to this day, fast food tastes HORRIBLE....I think because it's so processed. The only thing I can tolerate is that 1/2 hamburger from In N Out.

My concern for you is not that you were able to eat a Big Mac, but that because you can, it's easier to go for that choice again and make a regular occurance of it. I'm not saying you will....but if I had been able to eat one at less than 3 months out, I would probably just continue to eat them on a regular basis.

I am praying for you! I did not think that it would be physically possible to eat that 1 week post op. This really discourages me.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
