It's been 2 Years already
This helps because 9 days out it feels like it will never happen for me. So i just keep taking my Vitamins. Counting my Protein and waiting for the one day when my stomach wont look like a basketball and i will find this journey worth it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Staying positive. I am NOT happy
I understand. I had it 10-24. I feel like a sick person who gets palpitations and sweats if i eat a tablespoon of food. I am struggling all the time to just feel normal. I am always dizzy and feel like crap. I totally agree i wasnt ready or informed. I told the counselor all the right things. He didnt dig to deep. I am lost right now because i had a lot of issues with food and still do Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Not telling anyone. What do you say?
My family is horrible that is why. Not one person would be anything but negative. Over the years I have been the one to take care of myself and just combing my hair on a regular basis causes them to be mean and nasty. I wouldnt tell them if my life depended on it.

Post op depression
Well it has kicked in. The pain and trauma are there, starvation is there, dehydration. But weightloss is not there yet so i am feeling really guilty nine days out that I cannot do as much. I had hernia repair and slow healing. Then tore something inside. Feeling really useless, sore, tired. And yes grouchy. I havnt lost anymore weight since surgery so feel like this is a huge mistake. I know my hormones are crazy. Any body else in a funk. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Is there limitations on spicy food? Had some curry today since doc pit me on mashable foods. Loved having some spice back but wondered if my stomach can handle it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

8 days post op
I seem to be able to eat a large variety of foods with little trouble. I keep forgetting i am supposed to be on a liquid diet?? What is wrong with me. I have to cook for fam and without thinking i eat stuff. I am going to end hp with a leak or something. I need to re commit and get with the program. It is like I am on auto pilot. Today I popped chicken into my mouth and believe me it went down rough!!! I went back to Soup with soft noodles but still feel like I am pushing it. Will I be a sleeve fail? Are my eating habits to ingrained to kick? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Not telling anyone. What do you say?
I had a hernia repair as well so i just say that. Most people dont really care lol. After hiatal hernia you have to be on special diet so that accounts for about everything. But the truth is if we don't eat right and move we won't lose so saying diet and movement is the truth. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
