One Month Post Op!!!
Apr 15, 2009
I know you've heard it before, but I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!! In this short period of time, i already know that this has been the absolute best decision i ever made for myself! I feel wonderful. The pounds and the inches are just melting away. At the same time my energy and self confidence are through the roof. I don't have one single regret, i only wish i had known about the sleeve sooner! I can't believe how quickly the time has passed already. Other people started noticing the physical changes before i did. My sleeve is amazing. I'm at the point in my diet now where i can have what i want. It is so incredible to enjoy the things i like and be totally satisfied with a small portion. I have never experienced that in my life. It is so freeing. I even cook more now because i am not afraid of food, i'm not scared i will eat everything in sight. I've noticed that i have a greater desire for healthier foods than i did before surgery, but if there is something i want, i don't deny myself, and i'm totally satisfied just by tasting it! All of my bad carb cravings are gone. I don't even miss my sodas that i thought i couldn't live without. I'm one of the sleevers who does still have an appetite, and i'm glad of that, because i do still get to enjoy food, just in a much healthier way. I've been in many social eating situations since having my sleeve and didn't feel tempted in the least to try to eat more than my tiny tummy could hold. I feel like i have the best of both worlds; my sleeve and i are a perfect fit!
