Grocery Shopping, Hate it now!



Recommended Posts

I was wondering if any one else felt this way, I use to love going grocery shopping, now I hate it. I came home and felt like crying, because now I don't enjoy it, there was no fun in it.

Can you explain a little more about why it upsets you? I actually enjoy grocery shopping more post band because I know if I do buy something "bad" I can't eat the whole package anymore. I used to get really anxious, trying to talk myself into only getting healthy stuff, but obsessed with all of the junk food I would pass. Of course, I used to cave most of the time...

When I was first banded I went through some really bad food mourning... We would order carry out and I'd walk around throwing stuff around the kitchen, frustrated and mad that I couldn't eat. I just now realized that that hasn't happened to me in months. Give it some time. It takes the brain a while to get banded.

I cry when I have to go. Gosh, how I loooooaaaaaathe grocery shopping. Awful Awful Awful job. That's half the reason I got fat, because I'd just put it off and put it off and we'd have no food in the house and end up buying takeway. And stopping at the Quix down the road for junk for Breakfast. And buying lunch out becuase there was nothing at home.

I hate it! I hate lugging it in from the car, I hate having to clean the fridge out of all the liquifying veges that we didnt eat last week to make room for more. I hate duty cooking for a family too when I know they're all going to say they dont like it.

The whole thing depresses me. It's the worst aspect of being a mother I can think of. Give me dirty nappies any day.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
