What to do When You Can't Eat

Hi All,

I am 25, and will be getting my sleeve in a month. What I am most worried about is my mental state afterward, and finding things to do when I can't eat. What are some new things that you have tried since your surgery?

@Lyndor, ccongrats on all of your accomplishments ! I ran a 5k 5 years ago when I was a thinner me. I am now signed up for a 5K which is coming up in 3 weeks, I printed out 2 couch to 5k programs and unfortunately haven't even started them due to being preoccupied by my fathers recent death. Question is, can I double up on 5he program and get ready in 3 weeks ?

See if there is a time limit. I run VERY slowly and it takes me about 40 minutes to run a 5K. If there's no time limit, you can probably walk and run it in that time.
