I am like I said six weeks post op. I am on an almost 2 week stall. I am starting to regret my decision. I have found all the times I enjoyed with my kids,private time with my wife, and visits with my dad all revolved around eating. We would cook and share experiences. Now I get to watch the fun. I try to join but nothing with sugar or carbs just the Proteins. But then just a few bites because I'm full so choose which samples wisely. This is a much healthier alternative for sure. Problem is this isn't the life I had and enjoyed. Maybe enjoying life isn't so bad? Maybe it would be much shorter but it would have been a blast. Now I cook healthier for my family and they resent me for it. My daughter says "You chose to make these changes not me. I like my life and food before"

It seems to be causing a division with friends and family. In a time of emotional overload feeling so alone sucks. Not sure if this was the right choice after all.

Isn't everything? Noting worth while is ever easy, have you talked to your doctor about your stall? The mind is a powerful thing and I hope you are able to get out of this soon and begin to enjoy life again.

I thought about all this pre surgery also. It's much easier in the mind...
