Jessica, you made the right decision. You were brave enough to do this procedure so in my opinion your half way done because now, you cant go back. There is no other choice but to finish what you started because your dr. Cant return your belly back ????. Food will be always be there just not right now. Look at it like you are trying to figure your relationship with food and you need a time out from it . You need to focus on yourself not food. The most important thing here right now it is you on how this is going to change your life forever. You are getting liberated. Enjoy. I hope i make sense. Well, that is what i said to my self today and i feel better. Did you go for your follow up? Good luck

My appointment is Wednesday I'm sure once I get weighed I'll feel much better. I'm very independent and I think that's what's killing me and eating bad food would take all the pain away..once the weeks go on I will be fine...thank you they do say to expect this

Girl! Each time you fit on a size smaller you will be saying this was worth it! Good luck ????????

I hear depression is common after surgery. Maybe try to find a good support group or a new hobby. Praying it gets better!!

Well, today i am feeling a bit blue. I am thinking Thursday i wont be able to celebrate how i always do and makes me feel anxious i know this will pass and i will go back to normal in a few months but still gives you that feeling. I hope you had a better day

It is your thanksgiving on Thursday? I'm canadian and we have ours in October. It was actually great. I made all the usual food for the family. I was able to have a little bit of most things. I am 10 months post op gastric bypass. The point of it was I wanted to keep our traditional family time/ meal special. And it was, even with an enormous fight among the teenagers the night before. You will be okay. It gets easier one day at a time. Keep on keeping on!

For the first 3 weeks all I did was cry and mope.. We usually treat our emotions with food and this procedure forcs us to face our demons head on... It will get better as you find healthier ways to deal with your emotions... Reading.. Writing.. Exercising... Making love...
