My first Christmas, holiday with my new sleeve. I will be the first to admit I have been eating like total crap lately , the past week or so I would say . Am i worried about it ? No .. I have gone so long with out eating real food, good food that I decided to not worry about it . Would this be advice I would give someone else ? At this point in the game , if they have gone through a revision and not eating solid foods for a year . Probably so . I can start working out full blown January first , I have been walking now . But I will start yoga in my house until I can join a gym.
Even with eating too often and not the right foods, I have not gained any weight , i have not lost anything in a few weeks but that's mainly due to the stall the normally happens around this time of year.
I have been "hungry " alot lately , but that has more to do with needing a PPI ( Prilosec ect ) than anything. It seems "Silent reflux" can make those of us with surgery feel like we are hungry .. So that's helping a little , it can take a coupe weeks for it to work fully . But over all I am happy with my progress. I am loosing inches ( which I need to start measuring so i know how much ) So Im pleased with my new sleeve !!

Weight Loss Plateau
Today is 7 weeks since my surgery . While I understand and am aware stalls are common around this time its still a little upsetting to go for a week and not loose any weight. I have been trying to avoid the scale on a daily basis as to not get discouraged but its not very easy .
There is a fear in the back of my mind that I went through all of this for NOTHING . What if this does not help me loose weight again ? Irrational im sure but it does go through my mind.
On a brighter note at least the surgery has helped me eat solids again . I have been able to eat some hamburger meat , some meat loaf and veggies. More solid proteins like pork or chicken still scare me to try.
I have also been pretty hungry lately , again something i hear that is common but I still have that fear " HERE WE GO AGAIN " . I am sure this will pass after I am able to eat more proteins. Its just a little hard right now .
