You my dear are a true SUCCESS story. I can relate with some of your pains (my mom died from methadone and booze overdose) I was only 9. Your story was heart wrenching and beautiful all at the same time. You have a wonderful strength, and I am sure that God raised you in his love. Congratulations on all of your success, strenth and bravery!!

Hope you don't mind if I reply, I didn't see a response to your question. Yes, when having "sleeve surgery" the hunger receptors in the stomach are removed so theoretically hunger is decreased. I'm sure everyone is different but I know I didn't always eat because I was hungry so there definitely is some re-education and behavior modification needed. Although I only had surgery 4 weeks ago I am adjusting to the changes. I had a few days on the full liquid diet where I was obsessed with food I couldn't have. I was searching on Pinterest, making yummy food for my family etc. it was weird, much better now but I am anxious to eat solid food again and am trying to figure out CARB replacements as I am definitely going to struggle with this part.
