Long term questions

[Melodytc]

Hi all,

I’m really waffling back and forth on whether or not I want to move forward with the surgery. I have trouble with the finality of the diet after surgery.

Am I really never going to have flavored seltzer water again or be able to eat pizza or a cookie? The thought gives me anxiety. Obviously I have issues with food. I’m just wondering if this means I won’t be successful. Hoping to talk to someone who is a couple years out and see how things are going for them.

I eat everything. Everything except hot fudge lol Carbonated beverages still do not agree with me. But I can handle a small glass of champagne for celebrating. I really don't miss anything. There is saying that "Nothing feels better than skinny feels." I was always like *Have you tasted a chocolate chip cookie?!?" But real talk .. I feel AaaahhMazing!! And really, I can still eat a chocolate chip cookie. But, I don't eat Chips-A-Hoy. I make my own. If I'm eating the calorie, it has to be worth it.
