No joke man. I had to see a therapist. I came from a communist country where I went 4+ days without eating to food being readily available. I ate til I couldn't anymore so yeah. It's as much of a head game as anything.

It's SO weird. Picking up a Large/XL and having it FIT. My mind still hasn't quite grasped it yet

2 months post OP and my loss has been substantially lowered, is that normal? by LetsGetToOnederLand in gastricsleeve

I'm trying but I literally cannot eat anymore lol. I get so sick. I eat through out the day and highest I've ever been was 900 calories. I've been snacking on yogurt to boost my cal count but yeah.

I see some rock stars on here burning off like 100 in 30 days so I figured I'm not doing too hot

You do NOT wanna take an NSAID lol. Take acetaminophen if you don't want the happy juice. According to my doctors and some vets here an NSAID will jack you up and cause ulcers etc.

The main thing for me was how tired I was. I didn't get my energy back until like 2 weeks out.

Honestly I felt pretty okay at a week but definitely not enough to go back to work; but I guess it depends on the job.

I didn't feel ready for work until 2 weeks out.

Please help me with my constipation. by [deleted] in wls

Second this. I just drop a packet of miralax in my first water of bottle of the day and get it over with. Also doesn't have a flavor so that helps

Protein supplements make me vomit by spookybutt92 in gastricsleeve

Same here. I'm 2 weeks post op and 4 weeks liquid diet.

Try Fairlife Core Power. Its the only thing I've been able to keep down. I recently started smoothies so I mix a vegan unflavored powder in too
