I think I have hit some lows. It is a mayor adjustment not only for my body but also physically. I constantly feel nauseous and the smell of food makes it worse. I feel lightheaded and shaky and found it very difficult to do a 10 minutes walk to my GP this morning. I have found some little milk ice lollies that I can stomach. My emotions are all over the place and the adjustment is more difficult than people realise. This is perhaps something they need to talk to you about before you have the operation. I would have appreciated some honest and frank discussion about what to expect afterwards. It is a big emotional struggle at the moment. I know that in a couple of weeks I will feel different, but at this moment I am not sure that feeling this bad is worth the money and the effort I have gone through. I know I have a lot of extra reserves but not having anything nutritious is taking a toll on my physical and mental stability. I can not stomach soup or yogurt. I find eating iced things easier. What have I gotten myself into?

they should have spoken to you about what to expect. I've read a lot about this type of surgery and what your going through is normal and you will start felling normal again in a few weeks.
