Most of us that are obese, feel that the foods we consumed have an addictive quality to them. Therefore we are addicted to food.

I as a food addict ate to the point of pain. Often spending evenings eating and waiting for the fullness to go away so I could eat some more.

Those sessions were always full of guilt but it didn't stop me. It, for the most part just made me feel even worse so I would eat more...

As for the guilt after being sleeved?

That's a good question, I don't know if I've ever thought about it. I will first say I cannot eat as much to feel the extreme guilt that I felt before.

But there is a sense of guilt when I make a poor food choice (like chips). And I still have a bit of a struggle with "wanting" to eat large amounts of food. Not that I do, because I can't! But I still feel that compulsion at night especially to eat.

These are all things I work on and others may have to work on too.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
