4 Days Out And Emotional

[skoehn 1]

I am 4 days out after surgery and I am completely starving and emotional!! Anyone have any words of wisdom?

Hang with it! The first 2 or 3 weeks will be the hardest. Once you get over the mental desire, you'll do great!

My family is being as supportive as they can but I feel completely alone in this!

Im schduled for surg on Oct 23, how are you feeling?

[skoehn 1]

I feel fine and no regrets! But I am completely emotional!

I am surely more emotional than prior to surgery. I think it's just part of the process. Hang in there!

Hello and I will be a month out on tomorrow. What you are feeling is completely normal. This lifestyle is hard to get use to post-op but I know you will be fine. Just remember you have to take it one day at a time. It gets easier with time and keep reminding yourself that it takes time. Be patient follow the rules and work thru your emotions because I would always eat my emotions away. With the sleeve I can no longer do that so I have decided to go back to school!!! Trust me it will get better

I think you got it exactly. I did do some emotional eating and mindless/boredum eating. Now I cant do that any more. I need to figure out other ways of dealing with these emotions. Thanks!!

The first week after my surgery my hormones were all over the place! I would cry if I couldn't get my whole cup of Water down in the allotted time! Just remember its worth it, and surround yourself with supportive people! The emotions will go away eventually!
