Emotions make my sleeve tight?



Recommended Posts

So I just got torn a new one by my family. Summary: I'm a failure in life.

Any who, it is lunch time for me and because I am sad/ just cried, I find myself unable to eat my full serving of lunch as it seems to be almost stuck in my throat. Any amount that I do eat just comes back up.

My question: does being emotional make the sleeve tight? I use to be able to eat my emotions away and now I can't even manage a 1/4 cup of cottage cheese.< /p>

Anyone have anything similar happen?

When I got into an argument with my significant other during lunch, I found myself unable to eat at all. lost my appetite completely, and couldn't even bring myself to put my spoon in my mouth. Pre-surgery, I would have happily comforted myself with my food.< /p>

Yes...when things go bad at work or I get into it with my daughters father or family, my stomach clamps shut. I actually could barely drink liquids on thanksgiving because of tension. I haven't found a solution as of yet... I was always the first one to reach for food for comfort.

Same here, I thought it was just me, I would, before the sleeve comfort myself with food, but when I'm upset or cry, I don't have any desire to eat. It feels like it will come back up if I eat while I'm upset. Keep your chin up, it will get better :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
