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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
