Hi,

I had VSG the same day as you.  I too am confused- sometimes what we read does not really translate to what we experience or feel. I am not physically hungry, but "longing" for food! When I grocery shopped Monday and picked up things for my husband, it REALLY hit me that I won't be eating a lot of what I love for a very long time...and I love to cook as well. 

We usually travel to NY to be with family on Thanksgiving (I live in Boston) but we stayed home this year so I could avoid the whole TDay feeling sorry for myself! I'm OK with not eating the meal today, cause I can cook it anytime and I am concentrating on thankfulness ;)

I am truly ready to eat some real food next week- even soft.  So tired of clear liquids + protein drinks.  Very hard for me to stomach the shakes post op. They were fine pre-op and now I hate them. Only getting in 2 a day at this point  :(

What stage are you on/what are you eating now?  How are you feeling? 

Ellyn

Feel free to add me. I'm 30 y/o starting out at 400. Surgery is on December 4th! Check out the bmi over 50 board. There are a bunch of people that have lost that much!

I had VSG one week ago (Nov 13, 2012). I'd like someone to talk with to give and get ideas from.

I'm a little confused about how my hunger should feel. I think I have a lot of head hunger.

Today is Thanksgiving and I'm very irritable that I can't partake since I'm still on the full liquid diet.

I could use some support

Thanks!!.

Im just getting home form having the Gastric Sleeve and am two weeks out from it. I have already made big changes in my life have lost almost 30 lbs!!! so sorry that you are re-thinking your decision... go for it, and it kind of looks like that all the bad stuff is being written on here, im trying to find a good support group so that i can stay on track, and not gain all the weight back. let me know if you go through with the surgery... im excited foryou, even though i don't know you.
