Never!!!! I have been miserable since my surgery...constant upset stomach, MAJOR DEPRESSION, can't eat hardly at all, everything makes me hurt. I am 4 weeks and 4 days out and I have lost 33 lbs, sure that is great, but is it healthy? I have never felt so hopeless in my entire life and I have been through some seriously difficult things in my life. Recovery was horribly painful, not eating is emotionally painful, stomach pain, restriction is tiring. I have been so exhausted, I am so angry at myself for doing this, shoot, I could have starved myself without surgery and it would have been a lot less painful! As someone else said, my calcium and protein shakes were fine before, but now the make me sick to my stomach, my patience is wearing thin.
