When did you honestly start to love your sleeve?

When I first had my surgery I was not in love with it.  I was kind of scared to say that I wasn't.  At about 2 months out is when I really honestly started to love my sleeve.  So, when did you really honestly start to love your sleeve?

I honestly loved it right from the beginning.  I kept hearing about buyers remorse and that everyone has it...but, I never did.  I have just never been able to eat this little in my life and not feel hungry.  I was not hungry from day one...which so surprised me because I was always hungry preop!   (I have more hunger issues now)  I also had no bad affects from the surgery so I just feel so lucky to gave gotten the sleeve and so thankful for it.  It really is the best thing that I have ever done for me!!

At 6 months and down 100lbs. is when "Love" happened!

Prior to that I was in "Like" with my sleeve.

I'm still trying to figure my sleeve out. Worring I'm eating to much, not getting enough protein and to many carbs. Still learning. Changing my thinking and old habits.
But I can honestly say it is getting better each day. I'll be glad when everything starts becoming natural.
So, I figure when I'm 2 months out I'll be loving my sleeve too.

 I loved mine the minute I realized I wasn't hungry all the time anymore. Not a moment of regret from me.

I have to say i loved my sleeve before i even got it.  When i was researching WLS i was scared to death of the band and the bypass and when i first found the sleeve i knew this was the answer to my lifelong struggle with weight.   I had a very easy time of it and loved it right away, i knew my life was gonna take a serious turn for the better.   Not eating Thanksgiving size meals at every meal like i used to is such  gift.   Jeani

Ditto what Jeani said.  I haven't had a day yet that I didn't love it.

Jeani hit the nail on the head! before surgery. Yea, I've had to adapt but, it was love at first sight...

No love at first sight here..... respecting it and falling in love in good old fashioned 'slow way' over here..... not regretting it though!

Life aint always beautiful, but it is a beautiful ride!           Imagine what you could do, if you could not fail!
