Buyers remorse
You better believe I had remorse over the entire thing. Mine lasted a little longer than a lot of people but after a little while it was completely gone. Now, a year later, it was the best decision I've ever made.

I think this is a common thought, MY thoughs are that we have lost our "best friend FOOD" now we are in pain, depressed, hungry, just pissed of a t the world because it came down to doing this to our body!!, this to will pass, i am 9 years out and i have not regretted it at all , except the first 2-3 weeks, when i hated everyone and everything, till i came to grips,,, it was ok to mourn food BUT THEN GET OVER IT, and get ready for the best ride of your life, it is going to be great, think of all the wonderful things you will be able to do soon, good luck,

Absolutely normal. I remember standing crying in front of a running shower at 2 weeks out thinking "why the hell did I do this to myself?" because I was too tired to stand and too tired to get into the shower and just felt miserable. It will pass! You will get to the other side and it will be worth all the tears & trauma.

not for a second but I am a revision from the crap band ( former band waver turned bandhater). After seeing all the success with people with rny and going through what I did with the band I couldnt wait to get my RNY. IT HAS BEEN A REAL RELIEF. And I lose weight without hunger. If your surgeon specializes in r n y you will be very happy probably. Oh yeah the first week after surgery when I was eating the jellos and the broths I had terrible head hunger and was very remorseful to lose my love affair with food but I can say that 5 months out and that grieving is over. I no longer love food in a love affair. I like foods that nourish me and the thinness and exercising is becoming my nuture instead of the food. Who knows I may even go on dates again someday.
Been there! The first few weeks were very hard...but the good news is that it does get better!
I'm only 5 weeks out, so those feelings are still fresh in my mind. I was thinking I totally ruined my life by having my insides sliced up...but those thoughts are gone and I'm in the process of figuring out how to get my protein and fluids in each day.
Keep following your doc's instructions and you'll be happier soon!

If it helps, the anesthesia and surgery causes depression. It's hard to be happy when you are too foggy headed to really enjoy the stuff that kept your brain busy. It goes away. It's been three weeks for me now, and I've just begun to feel normal. As long as I eat somewhat rationally, I can read a novel again. I'm going to try to play a video game tonight. I had to get back to work way too soon, and my brain capacity really stank, but it's pretty much back to normal.
