October 25, 201510 yr Popular Post You haven't hit the payoff yet. Hang in there! So much this! Would it help if I told you that what you're feeling is normal and that things will progressively get better and better over time? Because they will. It's tough going early out. So many changes to deal with. But soon you'll hit your routine and and start really seeing the weight loss and things become normal again. It just takes time. And do me a favor? Punch the next person in the face who says we all took the easy way out

Punch the next person in the face who says we all took the easy way out I went to walmart with the family to shop for the first time since surgery..and i had a panic attack..they brought all our favorite foods and i was stuck not knowing what to buy for myself..i know i elected to do this surgery but i feel like i made a huge mistake. .i dont even know what grocery shopping will be like im the future for me
October 25, 201510 yr Try the vitamin patches and keep trying different brands of shakes. Youll make it!
October 25, 201510 yr The grocery shopping gets easier. I still buy some foods I don't eat i.e. Bread, waffles, cereal etc for my boys. I buy a lot of yogurt, cheese, almonds, occasional deli meat for myself. As far as dinners go, I can pretty well eat whatever meat I am cooking for my family, plus a bit of the veggies, I just skip the rice/pasta/potatoes.

October 25, 201510 yr I should add that I'm the one doing the shopping so I get to determine what comes into the house. Chips and popcorn are allowed as they don't tempt me, but cake, tarts, chocolate/candy are forbidden! I'm 4 months out
October 25, 201510 yr @@anna9/15 Don't worry about the future. It does no good and wastes energy. Start with the NOW. Just keep working on getting your Protein and fluids in the best you can and let yourself heal. Talk to your surgeon and NUT about what kind of foods you should be shopping for at this stage. This really is all so temporary. Soon going to the grocery store will be just another annoying chore you have to do, and you'll have a good idea about what you need to buy and prepare for meals at that point. Hang in there!

Thank you so much for your encouragement, i know my post come off as negative.but im a mental wreck..i havent even been able to work yet because of my anxiety. Out of all the things i thought abt being depressed about my decesion was the last thing that came to mind..it seems as if life will never be normal again..and im scared of developing deficiencies. .because i cant find a vitiman that works and the BA seems to be so expensive
October 25, 201510 yr Have you tried the patchMD which they sell here in the store and others have said works according to their labs?

October 25, 201510 yr @@anna9/15 Surgery date was Sept 25, probably right near yours? If the vitamins are making you sick, I'd recommend the patches. Certainly a better option than no vitamins. I've read in posts where blood tests are saying they are effective. Today is my one month surgiversary. Down 17 pounds.
