Hungry Hungry Hippo seeks Less Hungry Hippo to buddy up and um... not be hungry?



Recommended Posts

A little about me. I was sleeved on 9-6-2016. I'm no wordsmith, but I have a gigantic sense of humor that matches the size of my gigantic (but soon to be smaller) hindquarters. I am struggling with cravings and head hunger and need a friend or two to help keep me motivated and accountable. Plus I need someone to laugh at my jokes. No really. Laugh dammit!

I love people with a sense of humor and you've got it in spades. Your topic title had me in (non-surgical) stitches. ????

I am RNY and over a year out, so can't really offer first hand experience for the buddy position. But I'm definitely laughing so you're halfway there.

Something tells me you're going to excel at this. Best of luck!

Welcome hungry hippo. I was sleeved on August 15. The good thing for me is when I eat most of the time I feel nauseated. So I think twice if eating again.

@FindingOnderland...thanks for making me laugh today. Wish I was sleeved already so we could be buddies. LMAO! Probably couldn't be buddies anyways, I would die if I lost any if my hindquarters (flat as it is). Hmmm, I think somehow my butt ended up being in the front. ????

I'm 2 weeks out. The first 5 days I didn't have much hunger. When I did Water or Crystal Light tool care of it. 2nd week out it began increasing. I'm on 3 shakes (I use premier) a day. I supplement with miso broth and homemade Bone Broth. I also have sugar free ice pops. They were very soothing a few days after surgery and I use them now. I'm hungry but it's really not awful. If I distract myself it gets better( I need to start cleaning the house in those moments)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
