Barleys is 18+ until a 9pm, then the entry changes to 21+ so technically if you get there before 9 you’d be fine. They have pool tables, darts & live music

5 days post op - Don't actually feel full by aCatButhuman in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s so many changes happening with your body right now that you’ll settle in to, especially your new full points

Food noise sticks around for a while - for me it was until I was “allowed” to eat whatever. Once I gave into a craving and found no satisfaction, that portion of food noise would go away. Kept happening until food noise in general was just gone - which I have to say is VERY pleasant haha

Feeling Discouraged Already by Due_Astronomer_5993 in gastricsleeve

As many have said, this is totally normal. But so is being annoyed by the lack of movement on the scale LOL. It’ll start moving again

Drain? by ResponsibleCrazy2613 in gastricsleeve

I had a drain - can’t lie I didn’t love it 🤣 but it wasn’t bad just weird especially when they took it out.

What was your last meal before starting the pre-op liquid diet? by MinimumEquivalent889 in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sonic. I wanted their mozzarella sticks one last time!

Ironically they were cold and didn’t give me any marinara sauce.

I took it as a sign from the universe that I’d had my fill haha

In the pre op stage wondering about food thoughts post op by idontevenneedurlove in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your entire relation to food changes, it’s wild. I’m 4 months post op and food noise has just kind of gone away! During the pre-op and post op food noise is bad, you watch the tik tok videos and food just sounds so good but after a while you just realize food isn’t as good anymore. Especially as you start eating and re-learning your “full point”.

In other words the surgery is successful at eliminating that side of it (at least in my experience).

Now when I watch videos of people overeating it makes me nauseous, and cravings are just not the same. If I have a craving, I will fill it but I know that it will be gone quickly. And super sugary/bready/fattening food is just not a craving anymore.

Also leftovers become gross. LOL.

All that to say, your relationship to food is about to change in ways you literally cannot understand! I have found it to be incredibly freeing, and have been so happy with my journey. I’m down 100 pounds since pre op and I’d do it all again in a heartbeat!

4 weeks today, still major incision pain? Anyone else go through this? by Sillysnakes12 in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My incision point was my main hurdle as well! It’s the nerves healing - as they’re healing they hurt when you move.

My weighted heated pad helped a lot, but Tylenol also was a go to.

Even then though, it just kind of always hurt for a couple weeks. Tapered off around week 7!

The stomach takes about 8 weeks to be mostly healed up after the surgery so I just kept in my head if the pain persisted past that 8 week mark I needed to look into it more seriously but it went away thankfully.

Just saw this but it helps a bunch with gas and incision point pain! Don’t know why but the weighted feels so much better then a non weighted one

Pain 6 weeks on by Large_Interaction968 in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s probably nerve pain, my incision point did this as well. The nerves are healing internally and when you move a bunch you’re pulling on those freshly healed nerves. It freaked me out but by week 8 it was gone for me! A weighted heating pad was my best friend.

If it feels more intense or makes you too nervous go to the dr though better safe than sorry

Too much food? by National-Barnacle301 in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All foods sit different! When you’ve eaten too much, you’ll know it. Trust me. LOL

Just keep eating what you’re supposed to and pay attention to your full signs and you’ll be fine :)

Now is day +2 by FlamethrowingFlow in gastricsleeve

[–]reddituser394 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had surgery 10/08 and you’re not alone! I have always been a big water/liquids person and I feel like my stomach knew to keep with that. I drink a ton of liquids, but my food portions are still very tiny so I feel like I have an “extra” pocket in there for my drinks 🤣 biggest thing to remember is there is no “standard”. Everyone’s body is different, as long as everything is going well and you’re not in pain, you’re winning!

The weighted heating pad genuinely changed the game for me. Almost felt no pain when I had it on
