I was sleeved on 7/18 and have had 3 "meltdowns". The scale hasn't moved in a week. Today, I indulged in potato chips because I heard they go down easy. I sit here wondering if I should feel guilty. Part of me says "yes" the other part of me reminds myself that I am human and technically haven't indulged in three weeks. Siiigggghh... I think it's this black and white thinking that got me into this in the first place. I love what JD7176 said - you have to tame the beast somehow. I guess it's about doing is smartly and in moderation.

IDK about others, but for me I had a few cravings the first 7-10 days then it just went away. Now my biggest problem is remembering to eat. I often miss meals because eating is not something I look forward to anymore. It's become a burden, kinda like fueling the car, or washing it. It needs to be done, but I wish I could pay someone else to do it for me.
I've actually gotten to the point where I'd really rather just have meal replacement shakes. Just because I can drink them faster and be done with it.

Okay guys, I know this is referred to as "head hunger" but I just left the hospital this evening (had my surgery yesterday) and all I can think about is a big plate of rice and chicken. I just need some reassurance that this will go away and if anyone else has had this experience?
