    Water and food at the same time?

    I also think the nutrients in the food need 30 minutes to be absorbed by the body.
  2. If you are a food addict like me - yes you will feel anger , out of control emotions, helpless, suffocated and panicky I'm 4 weeks out and I've processed all of these feelings. I'm learning to stay busy. I can't sit around and let the addiction take over. I hope with more weight loss to start jogging. I just need to keep propelling forward. Yes surgery was the right choice for me. 100% sure.
  3. So I'm 3 weeks post op. I've lost 25lbs. And no one has noticed the weight loss!! Wow. I must be super obese that 25lbs is not noticeable. Go figure!

    Eating at night...

    I struggle with dinner. Because it was always my largest meal. I get full so quickly I feel nipped out of a meal. All psychological I know.

    Is it an illusion?

    Oy Vay! It's a crazy world we live in. I have a sister who doesn't talk to me about the surgery instead she God's to our younger sister and complains that it's not fair that I will eventually lose weight and be thin. Imagine how I feel knowing my sister took comfort in knowing I was always larger than her. It hurts????

    Post op gas and pain

    I found out the isopure was too pure for me. Gas and diarrhea. Once I stopped it the issue resolved
  9. During first two weeks I thought the pouch didn't work because I could easily take in liquids. Week 3 now it's like a nerve woke up and indicates pain when I consume too much. The pain is awful.
  10. The depression and realization that I had alienated myself from everyone because I was so ashamed of my obesity.

    Had my surgery September 24th

    Wow, I'm impressed you are having shakes the first week! My surgeon only allows clear liquid for 7 days. Which for me is isopure and water. Actually got sick off the isopure and had to stop. Now I'm just having water and fat free chicken broth. Start 2nd week tomorrow and can't wait to have a shake! 2nd week is full liquids.
