I don't know how I do it. Just a little bit at a time and I eat slow. I just started being able to eat mire then 2-3 ounces. This was 4 ounces patti before cooking. Ate 1/2 then the other 1/2 a little later. I'm still pretty full 3 hours later

That's cool. I've heard about other people eating 2 or 3 ounces at my stage and earlier and I wonder if something is wrong with me! I just can't eat more than an ounce of anything... usually less. But, I'm doing well, as far as having energy and stuff. I wasn't trying to say you are eating too much.. not at all because I know others do it too. I'm thinking my issue might be that I am so short and maybe my stomach was really short too and now that I'm sleeved, I just don't have much space in there... I'm looking forward to eating slightly bigger portions. :-)

SURGEY date: 3-1-13

Down 48 lbs (18 was pre-op)

Ate 1/2 burger with bun for lunch. 45 minutes later ate the other 1/2. Why? Because I am stupid and weak. Ate it for sport. Please Lord, give me the strength not to try to outsmart my sleeve.

Anyone else do this sort of stuff?

Thanks

I am almost three years out and last Sunday for the first time since surgery I actually ate a jr. burger, with American cheese and the bun. I have to tell you, I felt a little guilt too. Ugh, I have ordered a hamburger before but usually I'll take a bite of it and then take the meat off the bun and just eat it. We were out with our new Sunday school class after church and I just didn't feel like taking it apart, so I got the little one. Neither one of us got fries, so I had nothing else. I was full but I will not do this very often, I feel better just eating the meat.< /span>

Pray that you can always just eat a little, it's wonderful and what we paid for, forced Portion Control. At three years out I cannot eat a full cup of food per meal. I WISH I was still just eating a half cup per. Early on, I could only eat an eighth of a cup, then a fourth.....etc. I can't complain too much, I still have good restriction.

Hahaha!!!

Don't you love it??

Someone here last week asked me how on earth

Can I have eaten a WHOLE BANANA!!!

(For those of you wondering how.. I peeled it took a bite chewed and swallowed then took another bite, chewed and swallowed till it was gone )

She was 11 months out, I'm 5 months.

She then told me "well I guess I could do it but it would take me a whole hour!"

So I guess I'm a freak of nature :P

I must join you as a freak of nature because I can eat a whole banana with no problem...l can eat a whole BIG softball size orange as well... When I eat a whole banana I feel full but a good full not overly stuffed, same with the orange! These are my go to snacks!

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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... :(
