I have morphed into a food monster...what is up?



Recommended Posts

Just stopping in to agree with Mr. Downtown---I too am back to eating pretty much all the same things I did before, banding, I just eat them in extreme moderation now!! I do try to limit the white flour and sugars....but have not really denied myself anything.

I too had the last supper syndrome-----oooh I need this, or what about that!!! Now, I relaize it was pointless, I am back to being able to eat it!! Difference is amounts! Taco Bell was mentioned---I used to go in and order one of the Value meals---and wonder if I should order an extra taco or something--it might not be enough. Now I go in and order the taco and I am done! Tacos are one of the easiest things ever for me to eat, and I love them, so it works!!!

Hang in there guys, our minds play tricks on us---but you are not alone---many of us have done it, and survived it!!!

Oh--and welcome to LBT guys!!!

Omgosh, I found myself indulging in my favorite foods too... then I found out that my insurance wouldn't cover me if I was over a certain BMI.. and low and behold I have to lose 10lbs before August 22nd.... no more indulgence for me! I did manage to eat one more meal of my beloved sushi though... ahhh...

Been there, done that! I was a total hog before I had to do the two weeks of liquids prior to surgery. I gained like 6 pounds because of it. It's definitely "last meal" syndrome!

      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!!

      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?
