6 weeks out, tired, grumpy, & I miss food
ChavaBling posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Ok, I do have to say I've lost a total of 55 lbs before & after surgery, and for that, I am very grateful. I've never really kvetched on here, but here I go, big time. I am pretty tired of waking up every day with a sour stomach. Why do I feel exhausted 80% of the time? Where's all this "newfound energy" people talk about? When does that start? I'm sick of burping all day long at work. It's gross. Some days I feel like I'd rather not eat than have another yogurt, shake, or slice of deli turkey. I feel like I'm so sensitive to tastes right now, I can taste the chemicals and artificial sweeteners in everything. AND SINCE WHEN DOES Water MAKE ME PUKE?? WTF IS THAT? ONLY IN THE MORNING?!? COME ON, BODY!!! I found out I was taking the wrong kind of Calcium (carbonate as opposed to citrate). I dropped $38 on a new tub of Mint calcium citrate from Bariatric Advantage, they came last night, and they're absolutely disgusting. Completely unpalatable, kind of like chewing a piece of chalk. I made #FEYONCE try one, and he was seriously grossed out as well. Where is the tasty, chewy, calcium citrate? UGH!! So many pills to juggle, AM, PM, and midday...I almost always end up missing one of my Actigall pills, so I'm worrying daily about gallstones. The last few days, I have missed eating...like a "normal" person (relative). Like, being able to go to a restaurant. Or not having to have an in-depth conversation with my dining companion about what I can or can't have. Or like, having to remind my DH2B that I can't have salad right now. Lord knows he's trying, but I'm just tired. And yes, this is about more than just "actual hunger"...I miss being able to eat more than a few tablespoons at a time. It's not because I'm hungry...because I don't ever feel hungry. I miss that act of eating and the chemical reaction in my brain from eating the "bad" stuff (ie sugar, flour, fat, etc). Moody.................... I chose to do this and I am not regretting it at all. I'm just feeling very frustrated this morning.
