Hi all. Six weeks post op from the sleeve and feeling. Depressed today. Was supposed to have dinner with family last night but it’s tonight. Italian restaurant. I’m still adjusting to this new way of life-not being able to eat whatever I want. I know where it got me-it’s just such a big adjustment. I feel sad and almost in mourning today. For my old life. Trying to shake it. Anyone else been there done that?

Advancing on diet early
Letsgetgoing2018 replied to KittyRhage's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I understand wanting to eat food sooner than instructed-but why risk injuring yourself? They make the steps we need to take the way they are to accommodate our new stomachs for a reason. I think you should hold off and follow instructions. -

Actual time off work

I had my sleeve July 10th. I took two full weeks off. I work from Home on the computer. Back to work for several weeks now and still feel the need to nap during the day. -
Congrats!

Thanks for your reply. I wound up getting salmon with veges. I did well. Didn’t eat much at all-but what I did eat was great! I watched the family eat all the appetizers and I was good. Fried calamari-I used to finish off a whole plate! So it was manageable and doable. Feeling better about conquering these challenges. Thanks for all the replies! -
I love it. Try it and let me know what you think!

Thank you for the reply. I just have been so down. Need to focus more on my cup being half full. There are food I can eat. I just have to be creative. I’ll post after dinner to let you all know how I made out! Thanks again! -

Thanks! You give me hope! You’re right. I can have foods with modifications. Just have to be creative. Haven’t had any type of pasta since surgery. Might try some tonight. Small portion. -

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who was addicted to my 600 lb life. No longer watch that. I no longer obsess about what I’m going to eat for the next meal. -
I drink McCafé. It’s delicious.

I hear you. I am six weeks post op and have stalled. Up 1.4 lbs from Sunday. Shouldn’t be weighing myself so much but I’ve been weighing every day. Sunday is usually my “weigh day”. Try to refocus and start over. You know what to do.

Will only drink decaf at recommendation of my surgeon. Tastes the same to me and is satisfying.

Hi there. I know the depression and anxiety. It’s a major surgery we just went through. It gets better. Six weeks out now and it’s getting better. Hang in there and these boards are great.
