brownj15 9 Posted June 18, 2014 I miss food as well. Really was hoping that I would not have so many cravings but I do all the time. I can't really say that I get very hungry but it is like I just miss being able to eat anything I want. Plus I think it is harder because I am home all day with my kids and am around food all day. I was thinking about taking the whole month off of work but am wondering if it would be better for me to go back to work next week. I have my 2 week post op appt tomorrow and am going to ask about the cravings. Might need to see someone to try and help me with the food addiction part.

TonyaNKy 79 Posted June 19, 2014 I'm home all day every day with my toddlers. I think after I lose enough to where my back doesn't hurt anymore, I'm going to get a part-time job. I too am around food all day long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssbills 13 Posted June 20, 2014 I wanna eat fries!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeeWee 470 Posted July 20, 2014 I guess I'm cheating a bit because I will eat fries if I want but only cause I can only eat about 4-5...so I say splurge but I'm no doc! Lol I notice I have no food restrictions, just portions. I can only eat a lil bit so I get as much Protein as possible with fun foods. I workout and lose consistently these days but I'm only 3 months out and 51 lbs down so we will see what happens....good luck all! 1 Denise73 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easnj 10 Posted July 20, 2014 I was the same way but once you are back to solid foods you will be surprised how quickly foods make you feel full. 1 KeeWee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blondebomb 580 Posted July 20, 2014 Had my surgery on Saturday 14th June the first two days didn't think about food at all. Now that I am home I am thinking and can't wait for these liquid and soft puréed food to be over so I can eat normally. But if before the surgery I was doing a diet I would break it and eat. at least the surgery is not letting me do that! Currently am on just liquids and don't get hungry but just crave what ppl around me are eating... Is that happening with anyone else? Yes I am...I want food! I'm 2 wks out...having a difficult period right now nut working thru it...ur definitely not alone.. 1 Denise73 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
