Hi everyone,

My name is Sabrina I was sleeve in Mexico April 16th of 2016. My starting weight was 344 and today I am 208. Im hoping to get some feedback from some others that had surgery around the same time as me. I feel like I can eat to much and maybe I stretched my sleeve some. Could you maybe tell me what you can consume in a day so I can compare? Still to this day I have absolutely no regrets and I never want to go back to the way things where before. Please help!

Let me first say, you look amazing! Keep up the great work! I was sleeved in February and at about Month 3, found my appetite really getting larger. I am still eating a lot of Protein 4-8 oz per meal but lately also saw a jump in my carbs. I got pretty lax over the past week (holiday cookouts) and didn't exercise as much and ended up gaining about 5 lbs. everyone is different so I would suggest just monitoring your macros to make sure your staying in the right nutritional zones set by your doc. And make sure to keep moving.

You have done a great job and look amazing. My surgery was 4/26/16 and I have lost about 80 lbs. I still want to lose another 30+ lbs but it is much harder now. The focus has to be Protein first but like others on this site I find I eat more carbs than I really should. Even still I am much, much healthier than I was before the surgery, I look better and feel so much better. The whole trick is to not let the pound creep back up!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
