A Sudden End To Food Funerals

Ever since I decided to get sleeved I have been on a crazy food funeral binge. I've not gained any weight that hasn't gone right back away (ie: 4lbs the week of my period that was gone again by the next week) so I haven't eaten too much more than normal which is good- but something really interesting has happened and I thought I'd mention it to see if any of you have experienced something similar!

My surgery is 2/6- A week from Monday- and al of a sudden today I have ZERO taste for food. My husband made one of my absolute all time favorites tonight for dinner.... and I am completely disinterested. To the point where the thought of eating it makes me a little bit queasy.

Granted, I was just sick, but yesterday I was starving and wanted to eat EVERYTHING.

Luckily my dr doesn't require a pre-op liquid diet because I would totally blown it last week- but all I've wanted today are liquids, aside from a few bites of scrambled egg this morning and a few slices of deli turkey for dinner.

I'm not sure what it is that changed! Maybe I'm just starting to get really nervous? Whatever it is I am SOOOO glad because I was so scared I was going to go for my weigh-in on Tuesday and find out I had gained weight and can't get my surgery.

Has anyone else had that flip switch into sleeve-mode sort of out of the blue?

  • Y'all hang in there--once sleeved, there is an intense period of having to deal with food ("What should I eat? When? How much? Can I have ___?"), and then, things shift into place and you start living

I LOVE YOU GUUYYYYYSSS!! (weep weep)

Y'all hang in there--once sleeved, there is an intense period of having to deal with food ("What should I eat? When? How much? Can I have ___?"), and then, things shift into place and you start living life without worrying about it any more. It gets to be automatic; worries or even thoughts about food don't really intrude any more, and it certainly doesn't control your life or your behavior. Freedom! Those days are coming!!

101driver, best wishes on your surgery tomorrow!! Looking forward to watching your progress as you join the losers' bench!

I agree... Sometimes I think.. Dangit! I forgot to eat... This is not good either. Gotta have food too while loosing or you won't lose. It's all a get balancing act.
