I just feel like maybe I am.in a worse situation . I mean I deal with an anxiety disorder and with the band I wasn't worried or fearful I lived my life normally. With the sleeve I'm scared to eat normal. I have always had issues with food my whole life. I just feel like when I see people they are so happy and my Dr's made it seem like it was the best thing since apple pie. I havent had any complication (knock on wood) but it's scary to me. I feel like i cant even take my capsules medication for my anxiety because something might go wrong. I wish people would have explained the process the emotions and the aftermath. Sometimes I feel alone with all this because no one knows I had it done except a couple people.

Neon anorexia?? Yea they say at 2 yrs a person with a sleeve should be able to get enough Vitamins through there food. Yea I try really hard with Vitamins .. I even take extra Biotin for my hair 20,000 mcg a day plus B12 plus zinc.. zinc is a hair vitamin... but u have to be careful if u get to much u could get sick. I even bought nioxion shampoos to help with the loss. I am blonde and don't have tons of hair so who knows how much I will have.. they say it starts at 3 to 4 months. I myself am already shedding a little more than normal.. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. I havent seen any videos like that and like I said my dr made it seem like u will be normal just everything is in small portion. I have some regrets and have decided to see a therapist I am on an emotional Rollercoaster. I cry I'm frustrated and I am still trying to enjoy life. I know people say the hardest is day one through 6 months but at this point I'm not sure what to think. I am not trying to be a debbie downer or anything like that because I am usually pretty peppy and out going but lately I'm just . Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
