Today was really weird. I could eat. Not a ton, but a lot more than I have been eating. I was hungry all day. I was able to eat a full Protein Bar without feeling full and ate every 2 hours. I ate quite a bit. Not as much as I could before surgery, but it was a big hungry eating day.

I wondering if it has anything to do with maybe finally getting my period, but I don't like this. I like getting full fast and not being able to eat much.

Has anyone else had a day like this?

I was sleeved the same day!!! I'm still not feeling actual hunger... More like the weakness and gnawing acid feeling when I need to eat... But YES... Craving and all that WAY more when the monthly evil time came around!!! I noticed my cals were up a little and I had to eat more often .. Still with salt and sweet cravings... Grrr... But it passed and back to normal now... Lol... Don't let it mess with ya girl!!! It will pass in a day or so and u will likely not want as much to ingest... :)

Saw this on another thread and it showed me exactly why we have to wait to drink.

Does this pertain to us, seeing as how we aren't bypass patients???

I had the same question while watching this. Seems to me, since we don't have a "pouch" but a sleeve, things might work a lot better. I am a former lap band patient, so I understand how this applies to a band situation, but I'm not convinced that drinking while eating is quite as counterproductive to we sleeve patients....although I agree we have all been advised not to drink while we eat or for the time shortly after eating.

I believe the reason Sleevers can't drink is because we need to give our stomach enough time to absorb all the nutrients from the small amount of food in our stomach. If we drank fluids it would push the food into the intestines without digesting. We need to give ourselves time before drinking otherwise you will be hungry again quicker which is what we are trying to avoid. That make sense?

      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
