anyone else felt the way I do

Okay so I went to a bday party and let me say it was so emotional seeing everyone eat. Like I dont mean to pass judgement but they looked like pigs with 2 hamburgers and a hotdog with fixings and handfuls of chips. And I saw a kid drink 3 cans of pepsi within half hour.who does that! Anyways at first I was discusted, then angry, then regretful, then sad. I even almost cried. I know its all in my head and I dont really want that crappy food. Im happy losing over 20lbs in 10days. I just had to get out of there. Anyone else experience feelings like that or am I just crazy??!!

I answered this question in your identical thread "I made a mistake". Consider posting your questions only once so as not to confuse everyone.

You will get through this!

I see the same thing now. My hubs and I went out to eat. I ordered a baked crabcake app...and ate 1/3 of one with a little salad. There wasn't even a drop of juice on his plate when he was done...and eve ryone eats sooo fast! I can't pass judgement. I am just thankful I am not that way anymore

Yes, I think we all pretty much feel that way! It's like our eyes have opened and we see things so differently. I can't imagine eating that much anymore and yet I used to out eat most of the people who eat around me. It's funny because I was afraid people would watch what I put in my mouth and yet it is the other way around!

I too was shocked after watching my sister-in-law eat some cheesesteak topped fries shortly after my surgery. I wasn't disgusted at her, but at thinking I could easily have eaten the same thing in the same amount of time only weeks before. I'mthankful for a tool that has me on a path to changing my old habits.

Post-sleeve, it's definitely weird to see how much "normal" people eat, and trying to comprehend that I used to eat that much too! It's kind of surreal.

I know I have no right but yeah, post-op I do find myself thinking some very judgemental things when I see people waddling past with laden down trays. But what really makes me angry and ashamed and a lot of things, is when I see average size people, definitely not fat, chow down on a humongous messy burger, fries, slurp down an enormous soda, and they are fine! There is no penalty!! They just go about their business and don't gain weight!!!! THAT'S SO UNFAIR!!!!!!!!!! Here I am, watching my every calorie, had major invasive surgery, and they get to eat like gluttons without fear! Grrrr.
