Who was sleeved in January 2016?

kristennichole · March 24, 2016

After reading everyones encouraging posts and food examples I've branched out what ice been eating. I'm doing good! I noticed red meat gives me heartburn.

Something else I've noticed, and wonder if anyone else- I'm nauseous in the morning and do NOT want to eat. I sip on Water and Protein (because I know I have to) but it takes me a couple hours before i can eat. Anyone else have/had that?

I'm so happy you're doing better!!

I'm the same as you...I don't feel like eating in the morning. But I can manage to have Protein shake for Breakfast with no problems. So I have my Protein powder and mix it with sugar free soy milk to get even more Protein. That's been filling me up till lunch.

Red meat is not a problem but it does seem to not digest well- feels like I have a belly full if rocks. Other than that I am good with all other foods so far except for pickles and vinegar type things which don't seem to sit well with me. Give it time hopefully things will settle down for you and your stomach too. best of luck!

I was sleeved January 8th. Im currently down 65 lbs. At first I regret having the surgery. I was constantly getting sick. I couldnt drink my Water. Or even keep down Protein Shake. But now that I'm a little further out everything is great

Sleeved January 26th. I'm having a hard time with depression. I'm only down 41 pounds and it's been really hard. I too get sick of the same foods but they're starting to grow on me. I don't care to go out but it's so hard to run errands and have that "hunger" pain. I get stressed out needing to eat certain foods. I only eat foods that need to be refrigerated so that's an extra pain. I workout, follow my diet etc... But 41 pounds... That's it... I too am nauseous all the time. I drink Protein shakes right when I wake up or have a high Protein yogurt to help settle it.

I'm so sorry girl. I'm getting better with it all, some days I'm almost normal but I have rough days where I'm just so depressed. You need to branch out what you're eating, like with the refrigerated stuff, get some things in your diet that you can carry around. I talked to my surgeon about the nausea (because I seriously just couldn't handle it anymore it was awful) and he gave me some meds for it & they worked awesome and I'm off them now. We are far enough out from surgery we should be resuming normal diets. Seems so much easier than it is, I know. But I highly encourage you to branch out what you eat, it'll get you back to normal!

& as far as 41 pounds goes... I was 280 when I started this whole thing and I'm 215 now, I was at a stand still until I started incorporating veggies and more meats & when I started going for walks weight shed off again. A plateau in weight loss is normal around this time. You'll get through it!!!

I had my sleeve on March 8th and I also have a hard time eating in the morning. I just feel generally "yucky" in the a.m.

I can't eat breakfast either. I mix 2% milk Unjury chocolate powder strawberries and spinach (I swear you can't even taste it) the night before and sip on that in the morning. Protein Calcium fruit and vegetable all in one

I got sleeved Jan. 20th and have lost 60 lbs. I had a lot of trouble in the beginning getting sick...spitting up everything I tried to eat when the nutritionist tried advancing my diet. I learned my stomach just wasn't ready and went back to the previous stage of eating for another week or two, then I'd try it again and be fine. Some people just advance slower than others. Just remember the reason WHY you did the surgery. Yes. It's hard it the beginning missing out on things. But the reward and feeling good about yourself again is sooo worth the battle upfront. It doesn't last forever. I'm 3 months in and just starting to expand my diet out...and I'm OK with that... I'm a slow healer. But I'm so glad I'm a sleever!
