Everyone progresses differently after surgery, but here is an example of how things change over time. • In 2-6 months after surgery portion sizes of smaller. Many people are still on the soft diet. About 2-3 oz protein is tolerated and 2-3 tablespoons of veggies plus 1/2 tablespoons of fruit at a meal. • In 6-12 months usually more food is tolerated. Most people can eat 3-4 oz protein at a time and increase veggies to about 1/3. Raw veggies are usually more tolerated at this point as well. Here I included about 1/2 small pear for some healthy carb. This one is not peeled. • How much could you eat at 3 months versus a year? • #vsg #vsgcommunity #wls #bariatriceating #weightloss #wlseats #motivation #wlsfood #eathealthy #gasticsleeve #transformation #weightlosssupport #gastricsleevesupport #wlsfamily #wlscommunity #bariatricfood #vsgsupport #weightlosssurgerysupport #vsginstacrew #vsglife #bariatricdietitian #dietitian #mealprep #mealprepping #bariatricmealprep #lowcarb #lowcarbrecipe #softdiet

Hiii frrieends I have missed you all! The Boutique has been super slammed and I haven’t gotten a chance to dedicate time to my IG. I just wanted to pop in and update everyone who has asked. I’m 9 weeks out and down 68lbs! It’s crazy to think I was that big, that depressed and hated myself so much. I am sooo thankful I took the plunge and put myself first. ❤️ Don’t worry I won’t sell you a single thing it was just weight loss surgery. . . . . #vsg #vsginstacrew #vsgsupport #vsgjourney #vsgcommunity #weightloss #weightlosstransformation #weightlossjourney #vsgbeforeandafter #vsglife

The only thing I regret about my decision to take charge of my health was that I didn't do it sooner! Weightloss surgery is just a tool! The real weightloss comes when you change your mindset and your relationship with food! It's not for everyone but if you struggle with obesity, find your "tool" be it, diet, exercise, holistic, etc., and change your mindset for the victory.

Did my pouch stretch?• • The dreaded question.• • As your new pouch expands after surgery it may seem like you can eat a lot more than you used. The pouch can usually handle around 1 cup of food at a time about 1 year after surgery. But it also depends on the types of food being eaten• • If someone asks me if it’s possible for the stomach to stretch after surgery (more than expected), I tell them yes but it is not common. • Here is what I would suggest doing if you are concerned that your stomach has stretched. • 1) Make sure you are eating protein first. This may help signal to the brain earlier that you are satisfied.• 2) Eat 3-5 oz protein per meal. Make sure at least half of your portion sizes are protein. If you do this it helps to stick to the 1 cup portion sizes.• • 3) Don’t drink fluids with meals. Alright, out of all these recommendations this one has the least amount of science behind it but it is believed the liquid helps liquify your food faster so the food contents can empty from your the stomach faster. Hence, being able to eat more and being hungrier sooner. It’s worth doing if you are concerned. • • 4) Avoid slider foods. These foods such as crackers, chips, or ice cream tend to be calorie dense but don’t fill you up so you can eat a lot. You will likely be able to eat more than a cup@portion of these foods.• • 5) Journaling helps you learn so much about your body. Keep track of what you are and how your hunger level felt afterwards. Maybe certain food combination keep you fuller longer. Plus, this journal will come handy for your surgery team to review.• • 6) Schedule an appointment with your surgery team. If you have tried all of the above suggestions and they don’t help then it may be helpful to see your surgery team. They can order tests to make sure everything is in working order. • Please share what your experience has been with concern with a stretched pouch? • #vsg #vsgcommunity #wls #bariatriceating #weightloss #wlseats #motivation #wlsfood #eathealthy #gasticsleeve #transformation #weightlosssupport #gastricsleevesupport #wlsfamily #wlscommunity #bariatricfood #vsgsupport #weightlosssurgerysupport #vsginstacrew #vsglife #pouchrese
