Sleeved 2/11, still cant eat much!



Recommended Posts

Is it still rough on consumption for you guys? I know I shouldn't complain since I started at 275lbs and I now weigh 228 and it has only taken 2 1/2 months. I just still find it very hard to eat, it actually makes me wonder if my sleeve has gotten smaller. For instance, I made a 3 ounce steak last night for dinner and 1.5 ounces of green Beans. I got about 4 bites down so like I always do, I packed it up for lunch at work. Well I ate it for lunch and got full then saved it for dinner. I still didn't finish it for dinner but only had like 3 bites left. So I made that steak dinner in to 3 meals and still had some left, threw it away of course. At this time you would think I could eat more but it seems like I eat less then I did a month ago.. Crazy! How is it for you all?

I am five months out and still do not eat red meat

It's just to hard on my stomach still. Is it just steak or all foods?

All foods, it doesn't matter.

I handle red meats fine though. Never had a problem getting them down.

It's been 10 months for me and although I eat more than I did when I was only a few months out, I still don't eat a lot. I am never hungry and I only eat because I have to. food lasts me a long time too lol! I can't eat ground meat. It makes me sick! Food is definitely trial and error though! Congrats on your journey!

That's a hard one... If your not feeling sick when you eat, like needing to throw up its probably fine but if you do start to feel like things just aren't going down it would be worth a call to the doctor to make sure there's not a build up of scar tissue

I just get stomach pains every now and then which is my fault for not paying attention. Thanks for the heads up :)

      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... :(
