Sher -- give a hug to yourself -- today is a new day! Sending you some good vibes and hoping today is better for you.

You probably wont feel full due to the nerves from the stomach being cut. Usually takes a few months to actually get the full feeling. This is why they say it is important to measure your food during this time.

I'm doing better every day, I have moved onto the blended foods as of today and seem to be keeping those down. I have noticed from both the times I've eaten thus far that I don't seem to be getting full at all, but I'm eating super slowly, so that may play into it.

That totally sucks - been there done that!! I would like to say I learn from it but while it deters me for quite a bit of time, I find myself doing it again at some point.
It's not the food choice that bothers me when I do this -- it's the fact that I turn to food b/c of an emotional reason. THAT is how I got to 318 lbs.

Topic: What was I thinking??!!
I am at work, stressed, frustrated and over whelmed. I can't get up and walk away or take a break because I am the only one here and have to be available to answer the phone if it rings and do all the work coming in, so whats my solution?? To grab a piece (although not big) of birthday cake and woof it down! Oh that's so smart Sher! Lets add a little dumping to the mix!! God that was soooo stupid! Now get to feel like crap too!
Going to hug the porcelain God and hope it all stops soon!

Good stuff Melissa! It will be here before you know it. I also did Atkins pre-surg and lost a good chunk. I'd not concentrate on eating a little as much as I'd concentrate on what I ate. It's a great opportunity to test out protein supplement shakes as well as get an idea what it's like to try and meet the 100g protein goal. It was worth it, it changed me from a possible open procedure to a lap.
Dr H is incredible and you'll do wonderful.
Congrats!

I really enjoyed meeting everyone at last night's meeting. It helped me so much. Now I can't wait for the Cookeville meeting.
Btw, everyone at last night's meeting were Dr Houston's DS'ers and it was almost a TON lost amongst us all.
