Thank you everyone I have managed to start walking about and go out windows shopping imagining myself going into normal shops not only the plus size ones. Another thing I am now beginning to battle with is coming to the realisation that my life has changed and breaking up with my best friend food? ???

Ok I had gastric sleeve surgery on the 4th last saturday and I am now 9 days out of surgery. The system I find with my surgeon is very different unlike the ones I am reading like I said I am Nigerian live in Nigeria but did my surgery in England. 2 days after surgery my surgeon got me on yogurts and I tolerated it and the day after I started yogurt in the morning, Soup and yogurt in the afternoon and Soups and yogurt at night and it was soup with bits in and I was fine. The next morning I had porridge (oatmeal) that was lumpy I was fine. I was walking about the next day as at today the pain is almost non existent except for a weird back pain like I had epidural (odd). I am now beginning to fight a need to snack as all I do is sit in my hotel room watch TV and my life revolved around food for a long time that is why I ballooned to 361 pounds. I have been quite naughty as I have been ordering room service wasting a lot of money on food I cant eat. This is where the food addiction kicks in that I am now afraid surgery cant solve. Can anyone relate to me and tell me how they got over it post op. On the flip side I am now 343 pounds today YAYYY. I need to know this too is normal

Feeing like a failure

I had my surgery 4th October 2014 and I have just lost 92 pounds I felt like a failure but I knew I was not doing what I was told to do. I stopped exercising drinking a lot of alcohol eating badly not that I could eat a lot anyway and stalled for a while. I see people who had surgery the same time as me losing over 100 pounds so I PICKED MYSELF UP DUSTED MYSELF OFF AND STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN. I went back to walking stopped drinking taking my meds and I lost 13.2 pounds in a month still eating carbs. Don't worry don't be discouraged just go on your journey at your own pace. THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN CHANGE THIS SITUATION IS YOU!!!!!!!
