citygal 0 Posted June 3, 2010 Hi all- just checking in and trying to stay honest on this site. I'm down over 30 pounds since my band to sleeve revision and so far still feeling pretty good. I continue to have those moments where my head hunger starts grabbing my attention. I've been doing lots of reading and something really jumped out at me last night. I know that somewhere when I was pretty young I started using food to numb myself out. So I really believe I used food to survive or make it through some of the issues in my childhood. The author I am reading wrote that we sometimes use a canoe to cross the river...but it's not necessary to strap the canoe to your back once you cross the river and carry it around with you. It's fine to leave the canoe by the riverside. So for today....I am thinking that I have crossed my river.....and I need to remember that I don't need to carry it the canoe with me....my smaller stomach has not totally elminated my fears and needs.....
