From a thought to 2 years out



Recommended Posts

I think believing in my sleeve is the missing piece right now.....I felt that way about my lap band and it did work. I just thought I wouldn't feel hungry right now and so limited, especially this time of year. Do u feel full when u start to really eat or is it just a mind of matter?

I feel full when I eat. My plate is a dessert plate not a regular plate. When I started this road trip I was eating off a full size plate. I felt horrible because my mind caught in late that I was full. So I was always feeling some kinda way after I ate. So than I went to a dessert plate now I eat a feel fine I can always get more food but I can't take away that feeling of over eating

Ok I will try to use a smaller plate. I do find that I overeat before my stomach realizes that I'm full then I have a stomach ache many times. I think I need to pay attention to my portions and making sure I get in enough Protein. I've been feeling dizzy lately and I'm not sure what is causing it.

Your body is going through a lot of changes. Make sure you eat and have Snacks with you just in case. I've been there. Your body is needing more but the trick is not to over eat. That's why smaller plates more often is the key

Everyone is different. But if you are willing to put in the work( getting you dates and appointments In order) yes you will get there as well. We all have demons to slay for us to get where we need to be health wise. I am glad I can share and maybe help someone alone the way

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
