UUUgggghhhh....Hit me in the face

Today has been the day that things have not just sunk in, but HIT ME IN THE FACE!!!!
I still feel no hunger physically, but the desire for food is outta this world...I know that people have buyers remorse at some point - I'm thinking this is the stage I'm going thru now.  My husband had to leave for a couple days and I quickly realized that food has always been my friend and comforter during those times...just have to get my head back on the right track, I know, but the struggle is HUGE today. 
Also, I did the "one drink too many" today for the first time.  Which, as you know lead to 25 min of the worse discomfort I can't even explain. I'm talking about laying on the floor rolling around WISHING I could throw up to feel better, no luck - just had to wait it out.
Thanks for letting me vent - here's to a better day tomorrow

Hayley - sorry you're going through this - but that's what our "tools" are about - reminding us where we've been and what we need to do to go forward.

Vent away!

Hang in there! Head hunger is one of my battles too. Must have been in the air today!

It is good that you recognize what is going on. It will get better.

Yep, it happens to all of us.  We all have many lessons to learn through this journey and some of us learn easier than others.  I sure have done some things more than once that I should have learned from the first time.  Everything does get easier, promise.  One day at a time.

I remember those first few weeks and at times almost panicing and thinking what the hell
have I done. This usually happened when I was alone at night and mainly happened when
I was still on liquids. I had people tell me that this would pass and it DOES!! I felt so much
better when I progressed to soft foods and could actually eat again. I also was satisfied
with the small amounts I could eat. You will survive these feelings...you are grieving but
you will be able to eat again and will learn new ways in coping. Hang in there!!!

I get head hunger a lot too!  Thank goodness for restriction, and diet logs.

You may already know this, but I found early post op when I am in discomfort if I lay on my left side, it helps a lot. 

Hi Hayley, I know you feel bad now but it does get better and you will be rockin with your new life and I say NEW life because that's what you will have. When I first had my DS my son came to visit in the hospital and First thing I said was " I made a mistake!" but being two years out I can say it was one of the best things I have ever did for myself! Hang in there kid you will be just fine. Your blogging here is a good step to feeling better too. Take care ....Jeff

Hang in there and try to keep busy!! Price had a good response to a thread not long ago. It had her daily schedule in it for drinking fluids and eating. Always hydrate and there is no time to think about being hungry.
