Good Morning world and thanks for tuning in to another day here on Planet Magnet.
Today I have decided to write a post answering an inquiry I had from a chap by the name of Jay from Arizona.
It went like this…..
“Hello from Arizona!
I started reading your blog and found it when I was searching for posts about life after a gastric sleeve.
I am intent on having the surgery done myself, and was glad to find your post below where you talk about your new portion size prior to having the surgery.
Will I Be Wise With My Portion Size
This is one of my concerns as many of the thoughts you wrote about are some concerns I have myself – such as taking to large of bites and causing pain, having to learn to slowly chew my food rather than bite, chew and swallow…..not being able to gulp down large amounts of water when very thirsty, etc…
Now I suppose you wrote that post based on everything you read, and others you spoke to about their experiences. But what I am curious is if you could share if your actual experiences were different from what you were expecting? In addition how is it in comparison to eating now many months after surgery?
I suppose allot of things change and your able to get acclimated to your new stomach and your habits, and with so new experiences are occurring daily when you eat.
Hoping you can take a moment to share this experience with me, I would be thankful as I am planning my own journey”
What an excellent question!
