cynthia4722 74 Posted October 1, 2012 I Have been eating candy and other food that is not healthy and will cause me to gain weight. I was sleeved July 10, 2012 and have lost 50 pounds. Looking at my old pictures before surgery rinds me of why I had the surgery. I need to remember it is a slippery slope for me to eat sugary and fried food. I need to get back on track.

mokee 588 Posted October 2, 2012 Oh please tell me that some of the cravings for sugar go away after surgery. I am hoping that I will not crave it so bad after my diabetes is gone Hopefully. Please get back on track. You don't want to be that heavy ever again. I hope I have the strength to do the same after surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was the old, mindless eating. I recommitted myself today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawkihoops 20 Posted October 2, 2012 try to focus on the journey that brought you here and don't let that work be for nothing. I honestly don't think never should be in anyone's vocabulary because it will likely set you up for failure. If you deprive yourself, you may just lose control. But you need to think about the choices you make and exercise for the slips or treats you might allow yourself. try measuring sweets in a different unit. how many minutes of walking does one cookie equal? stuff like that.

kamrie37 134 Posted October 2, 2012 I am in the same boat. I am so close to the 100s. I just keep sabotaging myself by eating a little nibble of junk here and there. Today I had chocolate milk. I got to quit it! I even felt gross after having it. Sugar does make me feel gross now. I am going to tell myself that next time I want something sweet.
