I don't know this new sleeve yet, only for weeks out. I ate two meatballs and I am curled over in agony. What do I do now?

Sip some Water and get up and walk it off. It dies take some adjustment to eating habits. I eat too fast and before I know it I overeat. Slow down and chew chew chew. I set my fork down between each bit and sit back and enjoy dinner conversation a little more. You will get to the right place. But you quickly learn that overrating feels bad and not worth it.

Laying down can be the worst thing. Sit up straight and it will work it's way thru system in time. It's not fun. I ate one meatball 3 weeks out and I was in a world of hurt. Hopefully by the time you read this you'll be feeling better.

If you are producing a lot of saliva, start spitting so that you swallow as little as possible. If you already have swallowed a lot, try to make yourself throw up (this will give you some relief).

Then get up and start walking slowly and the feeling will subside in about an hour.

And remember this experience so that it doesn't happen again! :lol:

Sorry, no, ingesting anything else will only make her feel worse. Her tiny stomach is already full, there is no where for the Water to go!

Otherwise you're spot on!

Thanks all. I'm at a work dinner so was preoccupied. I thought two meatballs might be too many, but knew I'd stop when I was full. Then I got distracted and took that one bite too many. I tried to throw up, but it didn't work. I just walked and walked and am feeling better now. I'm not going to eat when I can't focus on how I feel. Lesson learned.

4 weeks out I was on pureed food. 5 weeks out I choked on a piece of soft chicken. The pain felt like a heart attack. I went on soft food 2 more weeks. Live and learn. At 6 months post sleeve I still am very cautious what I eat. Feel better.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
