  5. I know i shouldnt write this on here but I really need to vent and I know everyone here has been through a struggle. Today is the 2nd week after my gastric sleeve and i was nowhere close emotionally ready to deal with this. I have a severe eating disorder and now that food is taken away i dont know how to act. Im always bored because i replaced food with boredom, always depressed and scared im going to die because I think my bodys going to starve and shut down. Im constantly dreaming of fast food which was my main diet before surgery and I know it was slowly killing me. If i hadnt of got this surgery i probably would of kept gaining and using food as my coping mechanism in life. Ive used it my whole life so this is the hardest thing i have ever done. Everyday is an emotional roller coaster and i just want to give up. I have no option to give up anymore though. I pray to god that it will get better for me and I wont have to be in this emotional state because i dont know how much longer I can take.. Im going to a psychologist tommorow but I feel like im unhelpable Sent from my LGLS665 using the BariatricPal App

  14. http://diabetesupdate.blogspot.com/2008/04/more-on-actual-gastric-bypass-death.html?m=1 this has terrified me into a full blown panic attack.. Especially cuz i can barely eat right now What do u think Sent from my LGLS665 using the BariatricPal App
  15. Well this all started because I read an article that there is a human growth hormone in ur stomach that is taken out and causes you to age faster. Im unsure on this but it just worries me sick that I changed my anatomy even though i was 320 and kept gaining. I had dieted all my life and have been fat since i was 5 but my hairs falling out in clumps so its stressing me out even more..ugh Sent from my LGLS665 using the BariatricPal App
  16. Im a 22 year old female who just got gastric sleeve surgery and am 2 weeks out. I feel like I rushed into this decision and regret everything wishing I had tried harder to lose the weight. I am now scared to death that im going to die either from not being to eat barely or will die young after having so many complications from getting 70% of my stomach removed and losing all those important hormones. Im so afraid of dying and want to still have kids and a happy life. The research online scares me so much. Also i read gastric bypass leaves ur stomach in unlike the sleeve that removes it. Someone please help me. This is consuming me everyday of my life Sent from my LGLS665 using the BariatricPal App

  19. Hello everyone. I'm a 22 year old female who just recently got sleeved on April 5th. I'm currently on the liquid diet about to be on pureed foods tomorrow. I just feel like I really need someone who understands what I'm going through because I feel I'm losing control.. I'm having a extremely hard time being able to get the recommended 64 oz of Water in and probably only get about half of it. It really is worrying me a lot and the fact that the Protein is just as hard. All i can think about is the new extreme boredom and emptiness I feel inside after my friend (food) was taken from me. I dont know what to do with myself anymore and sometimes just think of giving up. I feel like this was a huge mistake and can only think of how ill never be able to eat as much delicious food as I want again. Honestly my personality is totally changed and I feel no joy in anything anymore. I realized the reality that food was my only joy and it makes me so angry that I let it be so I had to feel this miserable. Will this ever get any better??
