Does it get better?

I am a week post op from the SADI. I am happy I did it but also just feeling depressed and down, not being able to eat for comfort is hard especially because of my boredom. I am trying really hard to hit my water and protein goals but sometimes it feels like such a chore. My soreness is getting easier to deal with but I am winded so easily. I just went out to the grocery store to buy soup broth and it was exhausting. It was also so much easier to walk in the hospital then it is in my small apartment and its way to hot outside to walk during the day where I live, I was told to avoid sweating. I just want to get through this phase and on to the good part but it feels like it’s taking so long.

Having the SADI-S done in 4 days and I am just now starting to feel anxious about it. Up until today I had been really excited, I still and but i dont know I am just nervous. I feel like I dont know how bad I will feel the first week after. I am scared that I will freak out after the surgery, I have never felt what it feels like to not be able to eat. I am hoping I wont miss it for a while and that my feelings about food will change. Any advise? I have been on the pre op diet for two weeks, and I have been eating more then my program says to but all very “clean foods” just protein and vegetables, no carbs or sugar. It has been going well but all I can think about is preparing for my next meal and fighting the cravings. I have also skipped out on some social events during the PreOp phase to avoid the bad foods that might temp me at these events.
