I have had a weight issue since as long as I have memory of childhood issues. It has been a great source of embarassment, ridicule, and a source of low self-esteem. I have tried many things: diet plans, fads, machines, TV equipment, etc. I have again decided that I will give myself another chance. I realize that a lot of my eating is emotional eatig. Some may recognize what is called the Carbohydrate high! Eat until full and find some satisfaction for a short time. This behavior is self-defeating as I eat and gain weight and eat because I have gained weight. I recently- 9 days ago had surgery and am feeling afraid about the possible outcome. I am looking to connect with those who have had the surgery and can give some feedback regarding questions I have. I also hope to be able to find a support system as well.
