I am 11 months out and can eat almost anything I want - just in moderation. Mostly I sample something off my hubby's plate (dinner and/or dessert) and I'm good to go. I just need the taste and 3 M&M Vitamins a day for the chocolate fix. I do miss drinking Water with my meals, a lot! Sometimes I wish I could eat more of something just because it is so good, almost mourn it, but that's where this all started so I'm extremely grateful for my intake abilities and stay with bounds. I've learned to only put on my plate that which I can eat and pack the rest away before I even get started so I don't over do it, especially when eating out. I order the takeout box with my dinner order. I've learned to like left-overs, something I never hardly did before, and enjoy the ability to spread the cost of a nice meal out over 2-3 meals. WLS is life-changing, but sooooo worth it, love the new me.
Sometimes I just miss being able to eat. It is hard to explain, but when I have had a bad day, sometimes all I want is to order ten mcdoubles and a large fry and a 20 piece nugget and sit on the couch and eat it all....I guess I was an emotional eater. I do not regret the surgery at all though.
