It's a cold and snowy day here. My husband works nights and is sleeping. It's quiet. There's not much to do. You get the picture...

I pulled out a couple of favorite cookbooks to write down ingredients on my grocery list. I continued browsing and came across 'monkey bread'. If you're not familiar with it, it's simple matter of canned biscuits, cinnamon, sugar and butter.

Oh my gosh. Just seeing that recipe, I could imagine myself sitting there eating as much of it as I wanted. Just chowing down. A binge. That led my mind toward other foods that I'd really like to binge on. It seems my mind is absolutely wrapped around food (or lack thereof) today.

Anybody out there that can empathize?

Dont go there..lol

I bought my family a wurzel bread to go with some butternut Soup I made an for some reason I had to eat bread today!I dont think I've had any bread for 10 months now.

Of course once I started I couldnt stay away from it.AND IT STILL MAKES ME FEEL AS BAD ABOUT MYSELF as in the BAD OLD days!

I hate the fact that carbs can get me so out of control!

Back to good old solid Proteins.Makes me feel goooood!

Bingeing sucks,even sleeve style binge!

Yes, totally! We aren't too far away... SW Ohio here so we are also dealing with the snow and dreary cold days. I live alone and don't have much to do today so I'm enjoying some couch time. These kind of weekends I would look forward to binging and eating as much junk as possible. I loved to order in as much food as possible... three Chinese lunch specials, large pizza and wings, etc. Now I'm thinking about what to have for lunch... hmm, veggie burger or grilled chicken? It can be a tad depressing because food does still excite me. And sometimes I do order pizza... except ate less than half of a small. I don't beat myself up about it but I don't feel too physically well after it either. I'm a boredom eater and this cabin fever is getting the best of me!

So, yes, I understand. We are human.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
