Gastric Sleeve--Testimonial #1

in #obesity7 years ago

This testimonial comes from a woman you has had a surgical procedure commonly referred to as "gastric sleeve surgery."
--For the first week post-op her diet consisted of chicken broth
--She developed acid reflux and has had it since her operation.
--She has become a pickier eater because she only has the physical capacity to eat small amounts. So she wants to really enjoy the little she is capable of eating.
--When she forgets to eat for longer periods of time she becomes ravenous and will eat almost anything.
--She does not consume the recommended grams of protein or the recommended ounces of fluids
--Her urine is concentrated, stinky and infrequent.
--The stench reminded her of her days in a nursing home.
--In the early post-op days she regretted her decision but was too ashamed to talk about her regret with anyone, especially those who she had convnced to support her decision
--She only realized post-op how addicted she was to food, in quantity for emotional reasons and reasons of habit
--She wanted to un-do the surgery because she wanted to go back to her habits of eating large amounts of food.
--After the first or second month she felt she was always very hungry, always grazing.
--She noticed too that strange gumbling noises were always emanating from her stomach
--She found it difficult to deal with the questions people raised when it was apparent that she wasn't eating much
--Crunchy foods, crunchy junk food became more appetizing for her.
--Her pubic hair became denser, more prolific.
