Everyone is different. I say stick to the plan and don't go near the scale. I got sleeved on August 28th and had some hummus and salmon today (my first real food since pre-op) and it tasted like it was made at a five star restaurant! I had it with three crackers and I'm going to try some veggies with it next time.

I'm a week and a half post-op, everyone I've spoken to talks about the regret stage. It lasts longer for some than it does for others so you're not alone in the way you feel right now. My friend's wife is five years out and she eats what she used to (in moderation) but has found low carb alternatives to what she used to enjoy regularly. You can do this.

Let us know how it goes. Good Luck.

Thanks for the advice and feedback, KartMan. It's good to hear from experience. I very much appreciate it.

I'm a 37 year old male and my surgery is scheduled for 8/28/17. I'm honestly not sure what to expect with the sleeve. I have yet to encounter any post-op sleevers that regret having this surgery. As my surgery date gets closer, my mood goes from excited to anxious to nervous. I keep telling myself that this is for my benefit in the long run. It's great to be surrounded by people who are in the same situation as me because I need all the support that I can get. Does anyone who's post-op have any suggestions on dealing with the anxiety/nervousness?
