Wayne! I feel your pain! I'm three weeks Tom and just started introducing food. This is so hard!

I'm only three weeks! Please tell me it gets better!

Omg! I'm so glad someone else is going through this ( well not really because it's not a good feeling). I'm 3 weeks tomorrow and I am resentful, angry, regretful and emotional and I'm driving myself crazy. Don't know what to do because I can't stand to be around myself.

Right there with you girls! I had surrey April 23 and was able to start a few foods today. I didn't know how slow to go and didn't want to overeat amd couldn't tell either. I had 1/2 scrambeled egg and stopped and within 5 mts I was full. It's so hard! Head hunger is the worst! I hope that gets better for all of us! Good luck!

Ughhh! That makes me so nervous! I hope you all get well really soon!

That's awful . So sorry. Makes me so nervous as I am only two weeks out. When did your problems begin?

That makes me so nervous as I am only two weeks out. When did that start for you?

Hi! I am new to ALL of this. This is my first time on the website and i just has the surgery 10 days ago and my sister had it Monday. Everyone thinks the hard part is over but I think it's just starting... Any tips?

So I need to vent a bit. Feeling. Some buyers remorse today. Monday it will be 2 weeks since surgery. Still only on liquids and ensure. Wishing I could go out to dinner tonight. Does it get easier? Or more importantly more normal??

I'm there with you crystal for anything I can to do to help!

I cAmt wait for anything lol!

Crystal- I'm with you! I've been on liquids for 2 weeks too and I crave anything. Def mental hunger is the worst. I'm having a hard- extremely hard time with it. Not for junk just for food!

Thanks Mary! That helps

Me too!! Everyone says with due time and it gets easier. I'm 2 weeks Tom.

Good for you! I start soft foods this week and I am excited amd nervous!!

Oh that's awful! Feel better soon! I'm nervous because Tom I'm Just 2 weeks out!

I only had pain for 3 days. Everyone is different. Listen to your body and talk with your dr.

Hi. I just had the surgery 2 weeks ago Tom. It's been a rough 2 weeks to be honest but everyone says it gets better. In the 2 weeks I've learned I never would have lost weight any other way. I wanted to go out for cinco de mayo yesterday and if I was just dieting inwould have. The surgery doesn't give me the option. It definatly helps to have people to talk to. I am lucky in the sense that a few family and friends have done it so I bounce everything off of them. I hope to Donte same for others. If I can help in anyway, let me know. I haven't weighed myself so I'm Excited to see what 2 weeks is tomorrow!

So sorry for your loss. People on here have been great. I am 2 weeks tomorrow and having people that have gone through it helps. I too am still embarrassed of my start weight, but at least we are doing something about it. I'm here for whatever I can help with. It absolutely helped me to have had friends and family that have gone through it to be a sounding board. So I want to do the same in return. Kelly

Thanks so much Mary. That does help. It's hard and I wanted to go out with my boyfriend tonight and I keep reminding myself in due time. The liquid phase seems never ending! I get a few soft foods next week. Everyone says it will be worth it. I hope so! I never wanted to fast forward time like I do know! How is it going for you? Any issues?

Thanks everyone. I checked with my sister who is an nurse amd she assured me that I wouldn't have it in both legs and it sounds more circulatory. I will check with my doc last week. I am/ was morbidly obese so she things it was to do with nerves and weight.

He past few nights when I'm sleeping I wake up to pins and needed in the outside upper thigh of either leg. Anyone else? Could it be a pinched nerve?

I don't like the artificial sweeteners either! Yuk!

Hi! I had my surgery April 22 too. I am just on water and shakes still. I can't wait to get to try different proteins! Glad you are doing so well!

I am in starting next Friday too!
