SkinnyMinnieHereICome 2 Posted March 4, 2017 I was sleeved on 2/10. So far I've lost 24 lbs. I'm having emotional issues with not being able to enjoy the foods I once did. It gets a lot harder when your loved ones stand or sit in front you, crunching away (loudly I might add) on one of your favorite Snacks. Even after asking them to stop. Today I just feel like crying.

Keahsha Barbiiemonroe Harris 4 Posted March 4, 2017 ??Yes girl I had my surgery 2/20 and I still can't process food at all I'm depressed and I second guessing myself like this possibly wasn't the wisest decision. I can't even keep my antibiotics down like I need to and I am 15lbs down I totally understand ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IveGotThePower 395 Posted March 5, 2017 It will get better. Focus on what you can eat. There really are a lot of choices once you get past the first few weeks. Follow the instructions you were given and see a nutritionist who specializes in bariatric patients. Mine was a big help with suggestions. I really truly do love and enjoy food every bit as much as I did before surgery. Love to cook. Love to eat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vsg_queendiet 73 Posted March 5, 2017 It gets better. I promise. I'm 7 months out now and can eat everything. You be surprised how much food can fit in at different volumes. You should be able to fit 2 - 3 oz of food now. Get a food scale and start meal prepping. Stay on track and don't let others people get you down. We're all here for you. Cheering you on. You got this. 1 kmpatton15 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2-Liter 364 Posted March 6, 2017 Totally understandable how you are feeling my surgery was 2/24 I do miss food but what I don't miss is the reoccurring anxiety and feeling like I was going to have a Heart attack at any second. I have joined probably 10 different Ketogenic Facebook groups most of them are ones that share recipes and help coach one another to a healthier lifestyle. I find that when my mind is getting the better of me that moment is the Best time to take a walk. Watching others eat in front of you will never be fun but it is the price we pay because we are social eaters. I know exactly where every Carb in a pizza is taking me, right back to having no Hope and to a sense of despair. I have a feeling that your whole point of view will be different in 30 days 1 BigUtahMan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
