    I didnt want to lie...

    It's not about lying at all I think. It's about it not being everyone's business what we choose to do. We tell the people that are close to us and need to know, nosey and unsolicited gossip's don't need to know, however if you choose to tell everyone that's your business just as it is our business who we choose to tell and it's not for you to understand or say what is right or wrong. It's all personal.

    Major NSV

    Feels wonderful. It is all worth it when you have victories like this.

    Struggling with junk food.

    I was sleeved May 24, 2013 and have lost 89#. Feel wonderful. However still I find it hard to satisfy my "hunger". I eat my protein and then a little bit later I feel like I could eat a cow. Anyone have any suggestions about satisfying this actual or head hunger? Anyone else have this issue?

    Second thoughts

    I was sleeved on May 24, 2013....first 3 months had bad buyers remorse. It's a lot to figure out and total way of life change. Now, life is good. Down 82 pounds and feel wonderful. Learning everyday what works and what doesn't . I knew if I didn't do this surgery I was going to die. The reward is beyond anything I had ever envisioned. Hope it all works out best for you.
  5. Nothing taste the same to me. It has been very disappointing trying some of the foods I loved before May 24, 2013. I work for an internal medicine physician and he as no idea why the taste change....makes no sense. Some people on here say after time their taste returned to normal and some haven't. It's jut strange. Wish someone had an answer.
  6. I felt exactly the same way. Wondered what the hell had I done and could not go back. I was sleeved on May 24th. First 10 days have been more than frustrating trying to get it all figured out, but, last 3 days I have felt great. I wasn't sure if I would ever feel good again, but folks kept telling me it would be ok. This forum has helped me more than anything, seeing that I wasn't the only one and seeing everyone's improvements day by day. It WILL be ok. Give yourself a break. Try to relax.
  7. I had sleeve on May 24th. Full liquids now, blended soups, etc. Haven't had real meat. Basically if it will melt down in my mouth, I'm trying it. I'm down 27# as of today. Last 3 days have felt pretty normal. Found Unjury Protein and by far the best, and I've tried them all, wasn't getting my protein in until I tried Unjury, just couldn't take the others. Now I don't feel like I made a mistake.
  8. Well, it been tougher than I ever expected. I don't know what I thought it was going to be like, but this first full week has been rough. It's a total life change all at once and there is no going back after you have it done. People keep telling me it will all be worth it.....time will tell for me. Have to jump back to reality on Monday with back to work and some normalcy . Hoping that will help my mood and sadness I have been having. Good luck.
  9. Girl, the day before my sleeve, I broke and had a hamburger and a milk shake....just had too. No problems. Would really like one now too, but 8 days out, don't think I will try that.

    Paxil

    I am having to crush my meds and the taste is horrible no matter what I mix them with. Any suggestions. My doc has scared me so about not taking the pills as they are that I'm afraid too.

    hungry?

    So happy to hear that not only me hate those protein shakes. I just can't swallow them. Got some good ideas from y'all. So glad I joined. I feel like a mad scientist in the kitchen right now! Any other ideas will be so appreciated.
  12. I was sleeved on May 24th and I feel exactly the same way as you. I can only hope it gets easier. Now I know that I was not fully prepared or informed fully what this meant all at once . Getting my proteins is very difficult bc I do not like the sweetness of the shakes and I've tried around 10 this past week.
