  1. Hi all I am relatively new here and I've got quite a few questions! My story I've been heavy all my life and I've had diabetes and high blood pressure for over 5 years now so I decided bypass surgery was my only option since nothing else seemed to work. I'm 25 years old , pre-surgery weight 258 and I'm one week post op. I'm not extremely hungry but I have been having serious cravings for food that I generally never eat? Has anyone else had these cravings? I'm just so worried that ill eat things again that are not healthy craving hot dogs and burgers :-( idk but after having this surgery I am realizing the relationship that I have with food is so unhealthy... Maybe I haven't had a chance to grieve the loss of food yet... I just can't stand these cravings.., Also I've still got alot of pain in my left side ... Every time I move to sit or stand its like someone is punching me in the kidneys??? Is this normal? Any and all advice is helpful!! Elizabeth

    25 and 1 week post op in Tn

    Chelly, Thanks I actually was thinking the same thing. I've used food as a comforter my entire life to the point I'm afraid I'm addicted to it now so I do need to see a therapist about it ... I'm glad someone else agrees with me bc my family thinks its just bc I haven't eaten...
  4. Thanks! Ya I know it's all head hunger today has been much better for me I've been making lists of things to do to distract me from my thoughts of food. Also I lost 3 more pounds yesterday so that's giving me some extra motivation ! Thanks for the advice ! Best wishes to you as well Elizabeth

    Johnson city tn Dr. Scott Watson did my surgery June 4th... He's the best in our area... He's not much on bedside manor but I didn't care about anything other than his skill. He is a great surgeon you should check him out!
