I had a revision surgery from sleeve (2012) to gastric bypass Jan 29 2018. I am on a liquid diet until I see my surgeon on the 14th. With the sleeve, I didn’t feel hungry at all after surgery and was barely able to drink. But with this surgery, I am starving!!! It’s such torture cooking for and watching my fiancé and kids eating and not being able to have anything but liquids. It’s been such an emotional battle for me and I find myself literally crying over it. Am I the only one or has anyone else gone through this? Thanks!

Yes - I cook for my family too and I'm desperate to try some regularly! It's very tough. Only feels worth it when the scales are moving in the right direction.x

Lol I just got done crying because my husband stopped for food on the way to target. You are not alone but at least we are closer to the endgame than before.

I've been fixing Tomkitten things I don't like or allergic to, helps a little but not much. Since my surgery got postponed (dang it) i,could in theory,go back to regular but I've made such strides cutting back and even lost a little weight, don't want to regain even a single pound.

Hi I just found this sight and read your post. I had bypass over 15 years ago, lost all weight 285lbs and today I weigh 217. I can't have food that's not pureed since March of 2017. I was 262lbs when I got sick and everything would come back up and out. It sucks, I have been to several Drs and in November 2017 I was in hospital for vomiting blood. I was sent home 2 days later after the "EGD Dilation" it didn't help. I have an appointment with the Gastric Bypass Surgeon to find out what happened to me. Post surgery I couldn't eat dry meats at all, never could. I am telling you this not to scare you, maybe just to let you know it could be worse? My family is afraid of me dying, so am I, prayers would be appreciated, good luck to you. Not everyone is me so please don't worry about what happened to me, I have personal health issues. Take care, keep talking!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
