Lots Of Stress Eating Lately - Pre Surgery

[Looking Ahead 239]

Im having a lot of stress at work this week and eating anything and everything in sight. Its eith eat or cry. Will this affect me on my 2 week diet...I start it on June 11.

I felt a little crazy about food in the weeks before I started my pre-op diet, but once it was time to buckle down and do the 5 days pre-op I got serious and didn't cheat once. The surgery went well and now everything is different with the sleeve. So if you're serious about following your doctor's orders, it will be fine! Good luck!

Yes, if you dont stop the stress eatting you will gain weight! I was given my date back in Feburary, and I told myself I was going to lose at least 30 pounds between Feb and June....then stress crept up and bit me in the butt! My 5th Graders getting Spring Fever, trying to get and keep them focused for their state assessments, I got frustrated and said to heck with the Protein shakes, eating right and stuff, and started up my old habit of going to Mickey D's in the morning....

Well I stepped on the scale on May 20th (I have surgery in 3 weeks) and I'd gained 20 pounds! I started my pre-op on that day! Now I'm day 5 into it...I am approaching the wall (I getting the urge to eat) but I'm trying to stay focused....

I am the captain of this body and I will control it!! One day at a time!!!

Commit to taking back control....

I had been following the 6 month nut diet and wasn't losing at much as I thought.

Yesterday, my dog had a heart attack and I headed to the pizza parlor and ate half the pie I brought home. I was sick about an hour later. Wasn't worth it...I should gave just stuck to crying.
