I was sleeved a week ago...my daughter and I were running around today and I thought to myself "we should go get some ice cream!" Then I realized what I was saying.....????

I did something similar around State of Origin (rugby league) time...

I planned to order 'the usual' pepperoni, onion, olive and anchovie pizza, cheesy garlic bread and bottle of Coke...

Then realised that would be a week's food and decided against it...

Instead I had smoked salmon salad and a Protein shake..

What a rebel!!!

I used to do it all the time. Along with automatically popping something in my mouth I wasn't supposed to have early out. I did that a lot, lol. Old habits die hard.

As time goes on, food will almost be an afterthought believe it or not. It takes time getting to the point where it isn't the center of our universe anymore.

I'm with you there @@Babbs

At 23 weeks post-sleeve, food is very much an afterthought already...

Yet there is still the occasional mental planning of a meal and then realising that not only will it not happen, it physically can't happen..

Oh well...

I may not eat much but I still have my rugged good looks...

And my incredible humility!!

Kinda...

Yes I have, especially when I go my favorite convenience stores. I walk over to the soda machine by years of rote practice and then stop myself. Oh well 50 years of habits ....

@@Elode - Moved here 20 years ago, 1 year, 7 months 5 days and 12 hours to go, and I can finally move to some place with less allergens (my daughter will finally graduate and I am out of here). ;-) Where is he from, and while I love the people in Oklahoma and very proud of the growth in OKC, I do NOT like living in the pollen capitol of the universe.

Unfortunately yes. On a really hot day when my husband has a glass of ice soda I've grabbed it and taken a drink only to have to spit it out because the bubbles burn my and quickly remind me it's a bad idea lol.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
