Recommended Posts

Okay I had to run to the store and pick up some splenda and cheese. (what a combination right) Anyway I found myself walking isle to isle looking at all of things (food) that I have left behind. The pre op diet has made a crazy woman out of me. LOL. I know that I have abandoned them for a GOOD reason. But I do have a passion for chocolate. A BIG passion. But on the other hand I do enjoy tuna, cottage cheese and all that is healthy. But the chocolate covered peanuts (Brachs) was my BFF (LOL) I know this will pass. As I thought that I would go crazy when I gave up all of my favorite soda's. That was over seven months ago. I don't want one and I also think of how much more weight I avoided by not drinking them every day. I know that all of this is for my own good. I want to be healthy. I want to have a life with my family. So I know that I can do this.

I was just curious if any one else did this??? (Sounds silly I know)

I think what you are going through is normal. I personally did experience some "grieving" for the old ways of eating after I was sleeved. BUT.......all of those feelings will take a back seat after you are sleeved and the weight just starts falling off of you! You will still be able to eat all of the same things you ate before, the difference will be that after the sleeve you will be satisfied with just a few bites and not the whole package. Hang in there, it is sooooo worth it!:D

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
