two and a half weeks post op

Well, here I am 15 pounds lighter and still wondering if I did the right thing by getting this band. I am afraid that I will never be able to enjoy food the way I once did. I know it is just a part of letting go of my binge eating habits. The habits have such a hold on me that It is hard for me to see the positive. Yes, I know the habit is what made me unhealthy in the first place, but it is familiar to me and I understand binging. The new world is scary. Nothing to fall back on for a pick me up.

On the other hand, I like the idea that I have lost 15 pounds. The road has not been too bad, yet. I am little sore now and then when I overdo it, but I am relearning how to eat, how to chew, how to drink, etc.
