@GreenTealael: your tummy must be miniscule. Do you find that your portions are smaller now since your revision, or did you always have the same amount of restriction?

No clue what actual my capacity is ... no doubt smaller (but I suspect its similar to my VSG because I had a stricture then) but it was all the lettuce. I got bored lol. Delicious but boring and tiring to eat so I stopped.

I have often thought OMG do I eat too much? But I think that might be a WLS community thing (the desire to eat the least possible=successful surgery=better outcome) I eat different amounts of different things at different times. But in comparison to my strangers, fam and friends I eat almost nothing.

Today's lunch: Peruvian chicken stew made with a soy sauce and ginger base. The veggies are orange bell peppers and scallions. This time I ate the potatoes. I know it doesn't look nice since I took apart the chicken but its all about the flavor! Most of the dishes I make are suppose to be eaten with rice but I've been getting use to the no rice thing.

The leftovers ended up being my dinner. It took me all day to finish the rest.

Thank you! And yessss I am :D Its nice to know that even after surgery I can eat some what of the same things. I was worried my new stomach wouldn't be able to handle some of the spices and Condiments that are used in Peruvian dishes but I haven't had a problem so far.

I'm struggling y'all. All I can seem to force myself to eat is chips and Peanut Butter cups.

I haven't worked out in about a month and I'm working 15 hour days.

Any advice or tips? My mind after 13 years of competitive swimming and a year of broth, Jello, shakes etc for pre and post op is like "hell no...but slight exception for candy". Otherwise I just don't want anything.

      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.
