There's a big difference yeah but I've been able to eat that easily since I was able to eat solids! I just think everyone is different and experience different things!

No, "they" aren't. But "they" will give you "their" honest opinion if you ask. ;)

Do you have a Which Wich? OH EM GEE!! It's great. The choices are numerous and they have SO many more toppings to choose from. Also, they will "skinny your wich" for you, which means they hollow out the soft part of the bread, leaving you with just the shell. I still take off the bottom half of the bread and can't finish even half, but it's a great compromise on bread vs. no bread. :D

I missed you. I've been listening to Baby Come Back by Player the whole day waiting for you to write back.

I've been fighting it, but I can't any longer. I need a feisty lady like yourself. I know we started off on the wrong foot, but listen, no don't walk away. Just listen...

I can show you the world

Shining, shimmering, splendid

Tell me, princess, now when did

You last let your heart decide?

Standing with a dozen roses,

I can eat a whole 6' sub with all the fixings without any issues. I'm 6 months out and have lost 133lbs but I also work out 2hrs a day and lift weights. I believe you need those calories to keep your energy. Also, everyone is different and their meals plans are as well. So keep doing what your doing!

I HOPE you meant 6" and not 6'!

This whole thread is Drama, eat what you want ,if your unsure talk to your Dr!,we are not licensed professionals, we didn't go over your health. EVRERYONE here has a different goal,mindset, and plans.. so Sanju when you ask, understand this..not everyone here is open minded, and humble. Some think they are Experts... with no PhD.

Wish you the best.

Alright, before this gets any more hostile... I have come to this forum for advice many times before and there are some great people that offer great knowledge without passing judgement.

I'm this case, I came here worried about not feeling full when I realized I had ate a lot more than I had ate in over 2 months. This was while having dinner and preparing my lecture for class for tomorrow morning.

So it is my fault that I asked the question I already knew the answer for. What I should have asked is why I was able to even consume this meal without realizing I was more than full.

But In my opinion, the answer I received seemed of the shaming nature. This is my opinion, you do not have to agree. I am strongly against shaming of any form, especially on public forums. We are all here for advice and to learn. There are ways to give advice without sounding completely negative.

Yes I ate to much this time, but no that does not mean that I do not know the guidelines, or know about grazing, or not have a diet plan. I am not saying that I know it all, there was a reason for asking.

Best,

Sanju

I'm 2 months out and can eat subs also. I do the same as you and eat half the 6 inch then wait a couple hours and eat the rest. My surgery book does not say I can't have bread. It just says to restrict it. I just feel like I eat a little less then a normal person but not even close to the amount of food I used to consume. I am still losing weight but it is a slower weight loss. Without the surgery I would of lost nothing and probably just gained so I will take this way over just gaining tons of weight. In my opinion I would go insane if I had to be cut off everything I enjoy. I believe my problem was Portion Control and I have a addiction to sweets that is alot more manageable with the sleeve because I am eating one cookie compared to 10. I think if you are eating low enough of calories to lose weight and getting ur Protein and Water in you are doing good. I'm not a doctor but a all Protein diet is way to strict for me so I'm a little more different. I know people wouldn't agree with me but it's the only way I stay sane. Good luck with your weight loss. I have lost 35 pounds so far and feel better physically but still working on the mental part ????

My doc is very strong on a balanced diet from day one which is equal amount of Protein, fibre (fruit and veg) and carbs. He prefers we avoid white bread/rice/pasta which i choose to do but nothing is off limits except drinking my calories

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
