Browneyedgirl41 176 Posted September 25, 2016 I miss it, but I am newly sleeved. I'm sure someday I will be able to find out again. Going out to restaurants has always been something I have enjoyed. Not a drinker, though, so that will not be something that I miss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IveGotThePower 395 Posted September 26, 2016 I wondered if I would enjoy food again after surgery and I remember reading a post from someone who said she enjoyed food 100% as much as she did before surgery. I am 5.5 months out and I agree with her completely. I enjoy what I eat. I just feel sated with a much lesser amount of food. Another person at a meeting pre surgery said that food doesn't call to her like it did before surgery. That is also exactly how I feel. Before, food was like a drill sergeant in my head or a panic that made me feel like I needed to eat this or that NOW. I felt like I had no control over food. Now, after small amounts of food I feel like I just had a satisfying meal and I'm good. It's an even/neutral feeling. No panic or feeling of withdrawal or wanting food so bad you are almost shaking. Now I often take a few bites here and there of foods I love (mostly high protein) and it is still insane to me how I suffered through so many diets for so many years with such poor results, and now I am actually loosing a significant amount of weight while truly enjoying food. Mind Blown! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
