How hard is it not to feel jaded?

So having been there and done that with the bright eyed bushy tailed (or honeymoon syndrome) and now realizing what the real constant struggle is, how hard is it not to be jaded here? Most people posting are newly sleeved and are so fresh and eager with the easier road still being travelled. While its great that their outlook is positive, it must get a bit difficult to read all these types of posts. Just curious when the rose tinted glasses came off for you?

I am only 7 weeks out and realize I. Am facing an uphill battle for life. Wanted the solution but realize I only got a calculator! Still up to me to solve the problem...

The battle that you should be fighting is determining why food is a battle. Resolve that and the battle with food ends. You don't have to feel jaded. I didn't go into this with rosé colored glasses on - therefore there are none to come off. I'm more than a year and a half out and I do t feel jaded. I don't feel a battle. I feel healthy, happy and ALIVE!
