Had the SIPS procedure last Friday (3/17). Everything on my Facebook feed screams "food!" We have family helping us out and they brought my boys some pizza for supper. The smell was almost too much, I wanted a piece so badly! Then I got angry thinking "What have I done with myself? I have taken away this wonderful thing called stuffing my face" I know it sounds horrid. I know I needed to change. But that monster reared it's ugly head and then I started thinking of how much I would love McDonald's, and pork rinds, and all these things I want right now. Which I wouldn't eat. But I felt angry, and sad, and irritated that I couldn't just eat what I wanted right then. What the heck is wrong with me? Is this head hunger?

It does take time. I don't regret the surgery at all. It helped me look at food completely different then prior. I don't over eat anymore and if i didn't have to eat trust me i wouldn't I don't get tempted by food. It will get easier as time goes by. Even when I go out for dinner i prefer certain foods that i enjoy if i don't like anything they have to offer i rather eat home. Prior before surgery I wouldn't care where i went to eat i just wanted to stuff my face and over eat. Now, it's completely opposite.
