Looking for support. Emotional eater. Had surgery March 2013, Have lost 150 with 30 more to lose. Lots of complications and frustrated.

I am new to this and am not sure where to find your name. LOL But thank you so much for replying. I had sleeve 3/14 and it was a disaster. I has five surgeries after. I was nausea and vomiting ALL the time. I really appreciate my doctors office for putting up with my constant calls. I was put in the hospital 7-10 times. Finally this last November I had another surgery where they turned my sleeve into a gastric and repaired the hernias. I feel great and that is probably why I over eat. I would kill for a big bowl of fresh fruit and a big ole salad. I have had a lot of abdominal problems and had a perforated colon which resulted a colostomy for 18 months then had to have the whole large colon removed before the sleeve surgery. I have been on disability since 09 and my goal is to lose 30lbs, get PT, and get my strength back and GO TO WORK so I can contribute to my family.

Thank you! That is exactly what I need. I know when I am eating that I am eating too much of the wrong food and I need a reset button. I don't know why I am sabotaging myself except for the fact I was sexually attacked the week of my wedding. But that was 27 years ago and I tell myself - get the f*^$ over it. Don't give him that power. I am alone all day until my husband gets home around 7. I gained the weight the first time because of fast food and now when he stops, i ask for something and kick myself in the ass when i eat it. I KNOW I AM DOING WRONG. I need help doing right!! For me, its about health. I have had 3 additional operations and was hospitalized for malnourishment. STRAIGHT TALK ME! Thanks, EmilyB21

off topic - new to forum and frustrated because i can not figure out how to post a question like I need support = emotional eater and addicted to food and sugar. can someone please help me. emilyb21 sorry for butting in

I use Propel lemon flavor. They have a bit of fizz to them so I open all of them, let them sit on the counter for a couple of hours so they go flat and put them in the fridge. They are great over ice but remember - no straws. Good Luck
