Hello everyone

My name is Sars and i had the surgery 3 months ago.

I had some hard times with pain and all and after one month I had even more pain in my throat that I still feel it when i get sad mad or even angry !!

It get affected by my emotions show up with my emotions or even in the car with movment.... but it's okay i can deal with all of that ....

but what made me lose it and feel so down right now that i feel my stomach stretched!!

I can eat more and drink more than before! and I can go on in eating!! sometimes it feels like I never did the surgery...

I think about food 24 hrs and i'm always hungry!!

thats not normal I know and I know it might be me!!

I do not know what to do I talked to my Dr all he said it's you try to change you!! okay it's me I know just help me to change it!!!! how?

I do not want my stomach to re-stretch!!

I do not want to think bout food all the time and eat all the time..my ability to eat increased 2 doubles since the surgery..

I tried to think about something else or do some hobbies but I could not.

I tried to talk to someone but no one could help me!!

Please if someone had this before help me before it is too late!!!!! Help me go thro this I almost give up...I already give up...............

sorry for the long post.

Read and re-read the post from @@JamieLogical over and over. She's got it right on. My doc told me that after bariatric surgery hunger is usually thirst in disguise. Take a daily PPI pill like Protonix, Nexium or Prilosec, and make sure you get 64+ ounces of Fluid in you every - single - day! Good luck!

cuz i eat lots of bread and i think it make me hungry even more!!!

and I will talk to my dr about ppi

No more bread! Starches and sweets will just make you hungrier. Carbs crave carbs, and sweets crave sweets. (Yes, I know they're the same thing, but I'm making a point. ) And PPIs usually contains the drug Omeprazole. they're not cheap, but they can be found in any drug or grocery store in the US.

I cut the bread now and start with pritein when i eat my meal..i did notice a lil diffrent :0

i think i wad making my self hungry with my eatting habbit!!!

no i'm glad that you all replay me about the carbs and i'm really thankful~

Thank you so much for the replay for the post I really do feel much better ♡

The consensus of most posts are that eating Protein first, then some green veggies, and staying away from starches, is the hiway to success. After all, the essence of extreme weight loss for VSG is to create a small stomach and then go on an uber atkins diet - high protein and low carbs.

But, its also ez to negate the situation if you: A) Eat continuously; Eat the wrong things.

So, getting sleeve is a little like using the baby-bumpers at the bowling alley. Its a guard rail intended to facilitate extreme weight loss for the first 12-18 months. You can't eat much, so eating the right things is what makes the weight drop.

You are at the right place to get support from all of us who are on this same journey. I am only one week post-op and couldn't be more energized and optimistic.

Get your mind right, and you will be successful.

So glad to hear you are doing well! Sounds like you've made a big improvement in your eating and it is helping you get back on track. Putting protein first really does help keep you full and energized. And like you said, if you go out or have something not-so-great for you one day, there's no reason you can't get right back on track the next day or even just the next meal!
