bnnash reacted to Sleeved_Beev in Feb. 2022 Sleevers!
I am scheduled for February 20! I was starting to freak out a little, but I found this forum and it helped so much! I am having my procedure done in MX because it cannot be paid for out of pocket in BC. Curious if anyone else had a sleeve in MX and what the post-op support was like from a distance? I read post-op counseling and such is important. Would love to have everyone's thoughts!

When you get to purées you can try the ricotta bake. I lived on that stuff.

bnnash reacted to Bluebonnetgirl in Wondering if i made the right decsion
I felt the same way as you at first. I am 7 months out now and it isn't as bad. I can enjoy going out. I still struggle sometimes with wanting more of something just because it tastes good not becuz I need it. I am working on that. When that happens I tell myself I can have it later (in 2-3 hours) or tomorrow. It helps in the moment and usually by later, I no longer want it. However, I am not sad about it anymore. food is losing its power over me slowly and I am enjoying the benefits of being a " normal" size much more than eating. I can do so much more! Wear so much more! Be less anxious about where I can go/fit/ wear/ so much more! One thing I still am having trouble with is people paying attention to me. I was used to being invisible/unseen by others and now people "see" me, talk to me, hold doors for me, look at me...and it just feels weird after being ignored by everyone so long!

Im sure this has been addressed before but has anyone felt some form of depression after gastric sleeve surgery?
I did my surgery 4 weeks back and i feel sad, i miss food! it was such a joy for me, i used to look forward to going out for dinner or lunch. Now im wondering will i ever enjoy food again ? Will i ever be able to eat with my family again ?
I went out twice with my family for lunch since the operation and i felt soo jealous ! I really wanted to eat and participate in that social activity but i only had tea[emoji24]
Im wondering if i did the right decision ....
