Yesterday I was sleeved and glad the surgery is over but feeling down a little bc i want to eat something solid and i can't. Reality really set in today, that i will be different forever. I just hope I become used to it. Any one else feel like this?

As far as I can tell, that is a stage that most people go through. For me, it lasted only a day. Then I bucked up and got with the program.

Wish I could tell you that tomorrow will be dramatically different, but I would lie. Each day is a better day.

Remember no one promised this would be easy, but the results are totally worth it...that I can promise.

Hugs. No regrets, I love my sleeve!

Congrats on being sleeved! I'm sure it gets better like everyone on this forum says. I am looking forward to being sleeved in a couple weeks myself. Also your username is so close to the one I was originally going to choose, anewme912!

You'll be loving it soon, when the weight starts dropping off. Also beware of "head hunger".

I got sleeved 9/24. It has been very hard. I have had trouble with everything I eat so when I watch my family grub on something yummy, Ido get a little bummed. I know it's early yet so I will have to wait to see results. I think when I do, that is when it will be worth it. I have to remind myself that none said this was easy!!! Good luck to u!

Before the surgery, I would excuse myself from the room or the entire house so that I wouldn't have to smell the food or watch them eat it. I just keep telling myself that one day I will eat most foods again, just much smaller portions.

Yes I have to excuse myself too. It's funny I have been dreaming of food too. I had a dream I was baking a big batch of chocolate chip cookies and I could not get to the cookie dough to taste it. Pretty sad!!!

While having my Premier Protein, I cooked blueberry pancakes, bacon, hash browns, eggs, and muffins for the family. I just don't sit down. I keep moving, serving, cleaning, etc. now that the teens and grandma are fed, I am enjoying a cup of blueberry herbal tea in peace. I am 1 week post-op and not hungry yet. In a matter of weeks I will be having an egg with them. I just keep telling myself this stage will be over soon.

5 days out and I truly enjoy my chewable vitamin bc I get to chew! Lol
