Questions about the lifestyle of a LONG TERM POST OP

When looking at the before and after pictures, or whenever you ask a post op how they feel about their weight loss, of course the answer is HAPPY or GREAT. What I want to know is how is everyday life two, three, or more years out. Do you still have to constantly think about what and how you eat, or does it come naturally now? Do you go to celebrations/parties/restaurants and long for what others are eating and wish you could eat what and how they eat? Do you still feel restricted/deprived? I know overall quality of life must have improved. After all, who wouldn't love to shop in the 'normal' section, or be able to fit in an airplane seat, and all the other things skinny people take for granted. But I just wanted to know if there is another side to how you feel day by day as a long term post op. Sorry so long winded. Thanks!
