I will finish my 12 month monitored weight coach in August. I'm hoping to have a September surgery date.

Thanks. It's daunting at times.

I was confused too. What I've discovered is if you go to the website and click on your profile at the top there is a banner that gives you the option to search for members. That's where you can search by member name. Haven't seen this option for the app.

Have you thought about Over Eaters Anonymous?

I went there once. I may consider going back.

Thanks AmyL. I am the same way with rationalization. I'm going to try that.

I'm currently in counseling, and basically right now we just talk about immediate stressors. We haven't really touched on why I overeat and what's making me overeat. I just get so frustrated sometimes.

I am stressing, and guess what? I'm eating like crazy. I have 6 months until surgery and I want to take this time to get my eating in order. I'm gaining weight and feel constantly hungry. Not sure what to do. Need some support.

Thank you guys. I think it is something I'm going to have to make myself do. I like the idea of planning ahead for the day or even week. I may start off with planning the next day the night before and seeing how that goes.

Sometimes I will write down my food the entire week that way its like a menu just look at it and I know what I'm going to eat if it's not on there I don't eat it

That's a great idea. I will try that.

Thanks guys for the advise.

Hmmm, if you don't eat it, you don't have to record it.

Maybe I should clarify...without starving. LOL

I have been basically eating whatever I can get my hands on without tracking. I downloaded and started using myfitnesspal today. I didn't track everything I ate today because I just got tired of it. I really like to just eat without writing it down. I want to lose 30lbs before surgery this Fall.

Any suggestions you guys? I know I have to do something.

Good morning all. Looking forward to positivity and support.

Wow, you are really doing it. Way to go!

It's been so long since I was in a relationship' date=' I don't even know where to begin with dating. I won't be having surgery until Sept. due to insurance mandated 12mth program. Can't wait to lose this wait. I want someone to cuddle with. It's very cold here in Virginia.[/quote']

As I am ready to lose the wait, I am more ready to lose weight. I guess subconsciously thinking of the months I have left to wait.

I was sleeved by Dr. Carmody and he was great! I have nothing but great things to say about him and his staff. Good luck!!

Thank you. I have about 8 more months to go. I'm very excited and ready to have the surgery now. I really need to get some help with getting this weight off. I'm hoping things go well and look forward to working with Dr. Carmody. How long did it take you to get scheduled with him?

_{^{Wow. I hope it get's better for you. Do you know of anything about Dr. Carmody or heard anything about him. He's going to be doing my surgery. Do you go to the group meetings? I'm thinking about going to a few. I'm in Fredericksburg though.}}
