I definitely have had anxiety about losing my best friend "food". It's tough especially when the people around you continue to enjoy all of your old faves. I swear, not even a week out the hospital and I've seen Chick Fil A, Taco Cabana, Wendy's and pizza Hut boxes laying around the house. I'm like jeez guys can you stick the knife any deeper.

I was sleeved on the 22nd of June. I miss the numbness that food gave to me. I do love texture and flavor too. Every time I see others eating junk, I count the fat grams, the non-existent Protein, the carbs, and I picture the new me. My family went to Sonic last night. There was nothing that I could have. So I ordered a Route 44 cup of ice for 75 cents. I chews the ice slowly and eventually drank the melted ice. Keep asking yourself why?

That is very tough! I am fortunate my family semi-tries to eat healthy like me. They occasionally eat unhealthy food but I don't know how I would manage with being around it all the time. Props to you!

Have you tried maybe asking them to eat that when you're not home? Or for them to eat it outside of the home so you don't have to see, smell, dream about it? Lol

I often will get frustrated at the fact that I can't eat as fast as others do. I will be hungry and just want to eat at the speed of my hunger. I think I need to start eating healthy Snacks during the day so I don't get so hungry at dinner time. It is a battle and will be worth it in the end. This too shall pass.

I forgot for one meal and paid for it with pain. So I have to pay attention to the speed. Tough with guys eating at the speed of light

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
