Food Funeral

You guys i am on an emtional rollercoaster and feel so alone. :.-( both my husband and i had gastric sleeve surgery last tuesday and since then i feel all these sad/strong sadness inside and anxiety. I miss food, i miss going out to eat with my family and they had a party last night and could not go because i cry when i see everyone else getting to chew and enjoy the food. All my activities before surgery revolved around food and eating with my family and friends. My husband locks his emotions inside and doesnt talk about it. But i just cry and i want to get out and take a walk or ride the four wheeler but its been raining since surgery and we cant ride dirtbikes/four wheelers for a month. I feel like the biggest baby. :.-( im so glad i can get my feelings out on this web site and i wish i could snap my fingers and it be 7 weeks out and enjoy eating again like a normal person. I know we physically cant eat as much but its still closer to my normal life then this liquid diet. :-(

ill be two weeks out tomorrow and can honestly say its getting better. My first week was awful and I snapped at everyone for no reason. I still miss reading but everyday its gets a, little easier. I love my sugar free popcycles not sure I could love without them! I also have started to really enjoy my walks. I put on music zone out and take a nice hour walk. The exercise really helps.

I couldn't love without my Popsicles either ;-)
