A New Journey has Began

[msash06 7]

I am 27 yrs old and 2 days post-op from having the gastric sleeve. I was nervous but have had a good support system through it all and am doing well so far. I mainly miss having a nice meal with my significant other. Anyone else still cook for their family or have things changed? The smell of the food is more of the tough part and not being able to taste it just a little bit.

Anyone else having this same struggle? How are you coping?

congrats on your first post

you are cooking for S.O. ??

are his hands broken??

i would take a frying pan and hit him over his head

is it possible that he could join you in eating better, healthier foods??

glad you have support from others

i hope your S.O. can get on the band wagon too with support

explain to better half

you cooking for him and

yummy smells are hard to deal with

making meals for him is torture

just to mention............my hubby fends for himself

otherwise i would use that frying pan too

good luck

Oh he's definitely supportive, I guess what I said came across the wrong way. He has made better choices but just the food in general smells good you know.

glad he is supportive

no frying pan required

smells are bothering you??

what about using clothes pins??

probably wouldn't work

your nose would look funny

if the cooking "situation" won't change

guess you are stuck with the wonderful smells

deal with it??!!!

just my "attempt" at a silly joke

no offense intended

good luck
