I can't believe i'm 3 weeks post op. I've been fortunate to not have any issues except 2 weeks of hives from the antibiotics but other than that its been an easy recovery. Yesterday i ate a little more than I have been eating and i felt uncomfortable so i'm going to have to just stick to half a cup of food. The worst part of the surgery is the food addiction still lives on, even after 80% of your stomach is removed. Food made me happy for 30 yrs and I miss it terribly but I know i made the right decision. I'll need to go back to my therapist and get involved in other activities because I can't go back to binge eating after all this. It's not easy and will take a lot of work and reconditioning mentally and physically but i'm looking forward it. Note to self: Keep pressing on.
