I guess it was my turn

I would imagine that all of us that decided on surgery have a day that makes us doubt our choice. Today was mine. I am almost 3 weeks post op. For some reason today I hated everything. Hated soup, protein shakes, feeling tired, gas pains, bathroom issues and not being able to have a beer. I thought is it really worth it?? My best friend had the sleeve 3 years ago and I know she is grateful for it. But as of this moment I am having a hard time thinking about the future. I just want to feel better. I want to chew something! For some reason my surgeon doesn't have jello on his phase 2 approved list. I just had to vent. Thank you for listening. I need to lose 50 pounds and improve my health. I know that this was a good choice. I just don't feel it today.[emoji15]

    Sounds about right. I certainly felt the same way about 3 weeks out. Just keep in mind it does get better.

  • Yup. I had a day like that around the three week mark too. It gets so much better when you move to soft foods. You'll feel better. But I know NOW would be good. Some days just suck but the better day

Thank you guys so much. I am glad it's not uncommon around the 3 week mark. I know better days are ahead they just seem a long way. Thanks!
