I was sleeved a week ago...my daughter and I were running around today and I thought to myself "we should go get some ice cream!" Then I realized what I was saying.....????

I did something similar around State of Origin (rugby league) time...

I planned to order 'the usual' pepperoni, onion, olive and anchovie pizza, cheesy garlic bread and bottle of Coke...

Then realised that would be a week's food and decided against it...

Instead I had smoked salmon salad and a protein shake..

What a rebel!!!

I used to do it all the time. Along with automatically popping something in my mouth I wasn't supposed to have early out. I did that a lot, lol. Old habits die hard.

As time goes on, food will almost be an afterthought believe it or not. It takes time getting to the point where it isn't the center of our universe anymore.

I'm with you there @@Babbs

At 23 weeks post-sleeve, food is very much an afterthought already...

Yet there is still the occasional mental planning of a meal and then realising that not only will it not happen, it physically can't happen..

Oh well...

I may not eat much but I still have my rugged good looks...

And my incredible humility!!

Kinda...

Yes I have, especially when I go my favorite convenience stores. I walk over to the soda machine by years of rote practice and then stop myself. Oh well 50 years of habits ....

@@nomorechubbybutt63 I do every time I stick a huge bit in my mouth!

@@Elode - Moved here 20 years ago, 1 year, 7 months 5 days and 12 hours to go, and I can finally move to some place with less allergens (my daughter will finally graduate and I am out of here). Where is he from, and while I love the people in Oklahoma and very proud of the growth in OKC, I do NOT like living in the pollen capitol of the universe.

@@OKCPirate Ha! I don't blame you! He was born and raised in Bristow, I think that's how it's spelled?

@@OKCPirate Hey my husband is from Oklahoma!

I'm a Oklahoman too....Lawton/Duncan. But been in Georgia for 10 yrs and love it here.

My husband however is a born and bred Sooner and swears we will return..if he does he will be alone????

Unfortunately yes. On a really hot day when my husband has a glass of ice soda I've grabbed it and taken a drink only to have to spit it out because the bubbles burn my and quickly remind me it's a bad idea lol.
