Sleeved May 15 and Regretting it



Recommended Posts

First of all, I'm sorry your family is not being understanding and supportive, I was sleeved March 18th 2013, I too, had regrets. There were times when I said to myself "what have I done to myself" But please trust me when I say, it does get better! I felt alone and a stranger to my own family. My husband refused to take me out to eat because it was a waste of money. It took me and my family some time to adjust to the fact that the old me ( as far as eating) was gone.... Which made me sad too. But now after time has passed, we as a family and me as a person has adjusted and accepted my new tummy. We go out to eat on occasion, I just come home with a lot of leftover's.. It truly is a learning process, but more for me, it was a whole new mental process when it came to food! I will keep you in my prayers, and I know in time you will be in a better place. I still have times when I miss food and wish that I could eat more and enjoy food the way I used to. But those times are fewer and fewer as the months pass. I wish you nothing but success and happiness!!! Jesus keep

Awww I really appreciate your words. Things are slightly better, but something is something. Things are definitely way different than I had ever thought they would be, but I am learning to adjust :)

My doctor said that for the full liquid phase 2 diet you can take Soups or chili and put it in the blender or magic bullet and puree it down to a completely liquid Fluid consistency.

I am the same...I've always gotten some form of gratification from watching cooking shows, during recipes on the internet and reading cookbooks.....

That's what my wife did when I was in my liquid phase. It made the final few days tolerable and quick to pass.

      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! 😞
