My sleeve is still mad at me from 2 hours ago



Recommended Posts

I had one chicken nugget for lunch almost 2 hours ago. ONE chicken nugget and my sleeve is still very upset with me. I know it's different for everyone but I'm just curious what other kinds of foods didn't sit well with you even when you're cleared for solid foods? I've had no trouble at all with most other meat so I'm guessing it was the breading on the nugget. Or maybe the fact that it came from Burger King (don't hate, I had a mini crisis at home this morning and had no time to prepare a lunch for the day).

Steamed cauliflower caused me the greatest amount of pain. I had to wait until I was three months out before I tried it again. Even being nearly two years out, bread and Pasta still sit in my stomach like play-doh, and Miss Tummy will see to it that I am miserable for hours.

I can't do a lot of meats. I can do fish and chicken if eaten really slowly in very small bites. Pulled pork or pulled beef has made me run to the bathroom twice now, on diff occasions and made me very ill. I just can't do beef in general. I don't do breads of any kind cause they just sit like a rock.

Everything is actually fine for me, and I haven't been to fast food yet (don't plan to), but I find that higher Fiber stuff gets me nauseated and causes stacking. I can even tolerate pizza pretty well, but I am steering clear of it as much as I can after giving it a shot last month just out of curiosity. But carbs of any kind fill me up quickly and make me feel like I have ballooned. Fat doesn't do that at all. I just simply can't eat enough anymore to generate a true food coma. And I'm proud of that.

Early on, I had trouble with tuna. Sleeved loved salmon, though.

Don't worry -- chicken McNuggets isn't the worst thing in the world to avoid. And you'll be able to eat it later. That's how it works -- it may not go down well the first time, so avoid it for a few weeks and try it again.

I am nervous to try new things because it seems I have a very picky sleeve and nausea comes easy for me. Eating is pretty much an experiment these days. I don't know until I've tried how bad it might make me feel. Hopefully it won't be so touch-and-go in the months to come.

I love love love tuna, it was a huge part of my pre surgery life. Sadly it makes me feel so ill now. I can eat almost any other meat just fine. Kinda sad but will continue to try and introduce it back in every month or so.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
