Looking for sleeve buddy in Houston Area surgery was 12/04/13



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on 12/04/2013 and doing really well so I thought. But now my mind is starting to play tricks on me. You fill as though you can eat more than you really can and boom it hits you quickly. You are so full that even one bite more will cause that uncomfortable filling that doesn't go away for some time. Does anyone else that this issue if so what did you do?

Mine is Dr. Turnquest at Houston Methodist Willowbrook excellent doctor. I am almost 5 weeks out and have hit plateau for about 1 week now. My daughter had her surgery on 12/11/13 lost 24 lbs and I have lost 18 lbs. I'm not sure if it is an age thing since we eat about same thing. But we have follow up tomorrow will see what is going on at that time. I feel great more energy and walking on treadmill moving around much more. I'm not sure if not eating enough Protein to many carbs or what is going on. :( But enjoying changes that are taking place. Talk to you soon.

I feel exactly the same way. My nutritionist said I am over eating and eating too quickly. I have not found the trick to slow down yet :(

      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? 🤷‍♀️
