You made a huge decision in your life. Just remind yourself it's for the best. Keep your head up and keep pushing through. Do what your suppose to and everything should be just fine!

It is normal. It will pass.

You may especially feel regret if you were an emotional eater, as physically at this point you are likely not able to do this.

I had a little phase where I seemed to cry really easily.

In a few weeks you’ll feel great.

Sure. I still get hungry and I do enjoy eating but it is not the same. I used to spend lots of time wondering about what I was going to eat, planning my Snacks, shopping for junk food, etc. Now I do not.

I do on rare occasion eat small amounts of homemade goods like cakes or baked items, which has always been a favorite of mine. But I don’t buy ready made items like that anymore because it’s not worth it and it doesn’t taste good enough now. I eat out every now and then but choose mostly sensible items.

I think once you start losing weight and you lose a good bit you find other things to enjoy than food. Your surgery may change your tastes a bit too so that helps as well.

I understand. I love that I’ve lost over 100lbs. I still know that this is one of the best decisions I’ve made for myself. Just take it one day at a time. You’ll feel better
