Watching Ppl Eat Is Gross



Recommended Posts

Has anyone post surgery watched your family eat? I'm watching my mother eat a sandwich and the size of the bites she's taking and how fast she's eating is really making me nauseous. No wonder I was fat if I ate like that. Has any one else felt like that? Omg.

I can't eat with anyone right now. My husband used to eat so slow I thought, but now he disgusts me. I'm wondering where his table manners went.

I know what you mean. I went to lunch with co workers a couple of days ago. I ordered chicken Soup. I could only sip a few spoonfuls of the broth. But in between I was watching everyone eat. I dont know if I was jealous because I couldnt drink and eat, but it was like eating with a pac of wolves. And I was overwelmed and couldnt sip anymore of the Soup. I starting thinking OMG did I used to look like that ?

Yes :( I really try not to get grossed out, but I can't help it. I guess it's because I get so full on just a few bites I CAN NOT IMAGINE eating all that food anymore :( !!! But I try not to judge, they can't help it, they don't have sleevie.

Pretty much the only people I have a hard time watching eat are my dad and my roommate. (Off-topic, but my dad lost 100 pounds basically just cutting out fast food. He still eats whatever, drinks soda, eats ice cream, etc. It's not fair, really. :P)

Anyways, he eats really fast, taking in huge bites, and eats a lot. We went to a spaghetti dinner for a charity and I had a few bites of mine and gave the rest to my dad. He was still wanting more after almost two plates of spaghetti, a salad, two pieces of bread, and a piece of cake. I almost got ill just watching.

My roommate just inhales food. He'll take another bite before the last one he took is even swallowed. I remind him to slow down and that the food's not going to run away if he doesn't eat it slower. He doesn't eat a lot, but has a great metabolism even though he eats the worst kinds of food. He weights 170 and is 6'3" and can eat to his heart's content without gaining an ounce. I tease him by saying I just have to think about food and I'll gain five pounds. :P

Same problem I stress over the size of thebites everyone is taking and how fast. I had these beef tenderloin bacon bite things. I cut it into 8 pieces for me. My husband picked one up and put one whole one in his mouth! I had a panic moment. I sometimes feel sick when i see the quantity they eat. I was out tonight and had 3 wings and other people at the table at 15! I know it is all in my head.

Kudo's to your dad for losing 100 lbs, by cutting out fast food.

I had this for quite some time. once we were at ihop and I actually had to go to the washroom as I got sick by watching my family eat 3eggs, 4 toasts, potato, ham... Argh.

Now, 14 months later, it no longer bothers me but at some point it was really bad to see how much people eat, and how much i was eating before surgery.

It's absurd even a while out of surgery. I went out to dinner with my fiance tonight. I had 2 sliders (with the top bun off) and a slice of pizza and was absolutely stuffed. He had 2 sliders, with all the bread, and 9 slices of pizza. It's quite unbelievable, really.

OMG! 9 slices. I couldn't eat that and I'm not even sleeved yet. LOL

I am totally disgusted by eating out with my hubby. He eats, and eats, and eats, and he eats really fast. He reminds me of a vulture waiting for my left overs. i feel kinda guilty because he is a very supportive, sweet, husband. But he's also diabetic with high chlesterol and blood glucose is out of control. ;)

I have to admit that I don't have this issue at all. I know that as a high-volume eater, I used to eat a lot more than any of my other family members (and sometimes more than all of them combined!), so there's no reason their eating should bother me. I just make jokes about how many leftovers there are nowadays with me pretty much out of the picture (quite true, it's ridiculous how much food I used to consume).

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
