Am I eating too much???



Recommended Posts

So, I woke up pretty hungry this morning and decided I wanted something different than my normal scrambled egg. I made a toasted Fiber one English muffin, one scrambled egg and one slice of low fat cheese. I made a Breakfast sandwich out of it. I cut it in half and planned on eating a half. Well, I ate the whole thing. I could have stoped at half but it was delicious and I ate the rest. I am super full now. I don't feel sick, but I am very full. Could I h e stretched my sleeve? I am normally so good at measuring things out and I feel like I screwed up!

They say you can't stretch it if you over eat once or twice but if you are making a habit of it. Also, how far along are you?? There is always the risk of dumping syndrome and or forcing your stitches open.

Also, if you really really like something, put it aside and eat it later. Remind yourself that it will still be there later. Eating it in an hour or two is far better than depriving yourself or eating it all at once.

I was sleeved 12/21/16. There have been a couple of times that I ate a bite or two too much and I had hiccups and felt pretty lousy. This time I felt ok, just very full

Measure your food you don't want to undo the good that's my way of encouraging myself when I want to keep eating. Plus you should actually stop once your satisfied not full then 3 hrs later you could have enjoyed the other half.

bread, for you, might be a slider food. That means you can eat more of it than you would think. It just sliiiddees down without feeling the restriction.

Thanks everyone. I kind of freaked out because it seemed like a lot of food at once. I'm going to go back to measuring.

      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.
