Having this surgery was worth it every time I Weigh My Self
it is worth it.
My one question is will i ever be able to eat?

Aw, sweetheart, it certainly seems like you will never get to eat again. But you will. Eating, tho, won't be the same. In the meantime, take a tiny bite of whatever you are craving, chew it to smithereens and then spit the pulp out - don't swallow it....and PLEASE don't do this in public (YEECH!). It will help satisfy the cravings and you may find that your want for this is actually stronger than the taste and you may be disappointed in the taste - which will (in the long run) be a good thing. Hang in there. Are you having cup-a-soup and a variety of liquid things? Make a shake of some sort and put some banana in it - and put that blender on liquify! Come and moan and complain to us, it'll help!
We love you and gots your back....Hang on...it gets better....much, MUCH better, I promise.

Oh I remember those liquid diet days and how I despised them !! I know how I hated watching my family eat what they wanted and I had to remind myself that it was ME who wanted this surgery, no one made me do this and I cannot blame them for eating exactly what I used to eat and that I can NOT get mad at them. It was sooooooooooooo hard, those first few days and weeks. Depression kicked in and I 'm even admitting to a few good cries over the lost friend, "food".
The positive side of this , you ask? I can PROMISE you that it will be over soon, once you can start eating again, you 'll feel 100% better and it will not take long till you can eat normal foods again , of course, wisely chosen, not fast food junk like before, and then one day you'll say it was all worth it.
Just hang in there, girl. Hang in there and remind yourself, in a year from now, you will be rewarded for this, you'll look back and say, this is the best thing you've ever done.
Keeping you in prayers !
