Feel guilty eating (what to do?)



Recommended Posts

I am almost 2weeks post op. I feel guilty eating some of my mushies. Mind you I am only eatin 4 or 5 bites and I am full but I feel bad for even eating that much. I do not want this problem to follow me into my regualr food stage because I am afraid I wont even eat 1/2 cup from feeling so guilty. Please help. Anyone ever felt this?

No reason to feel guilty, you are barely eating now!

So when you finally move up into normal eating, You will be in the normal Range of eating.

So know reason at all to even thing about feeling guilty !

I was the same way, but I'm a month post op now and things are getting better. I don't feel guilty eating as long as I eat healthy foods. I think the band plays "tricks" with our minds.

I'm feeling the same way 1 days post op. I ate a whole thing of yogurt this morning because for the first time i could, and it felt so good just feeling like I was eating normal. But then felt guilty like maybe I'm sabotaging myself?! This is becoming quite an emotionally journey the last 2 days

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
