Big fight with fiancé. Second day in a row.

Fights are a HUGE trigger for my food addiction. I grew up in an abusive house and it's my pattern. Big fight. Gorge. Feel better.

I left the house. I'm in the car with 5 fast food places around me. Crying because I just want to eat and make this feeling go away. I'm 3 weeks out. My other coping skills are only developing. This is so hard.

Hot tubs make everything better! You should see if there is a hot tub/spa place around...or go see a movie. When I'm nervous or angry I play video games to keep my mind off everything

I play video games too if I'm super upset. Get a big jug of Water. Don't eat the fast food. Don't let it win. You will feel horrible and regret it. Try to take control of yourself. Support sent!!

This is where the rubber meets the road, right? This is reality and you cannot run to food.

Times like this is where you develop your new coping skills. Don't do something in the short term to make yourself feel better that yu will regret in the morning!

I just said a prayer for you!

Yes this will be hard, but you can do it!! Honestly one if the only things that keep me from stopping at fast food places is I HATE being sick and I know how real dumping is. The second reason is I went through too much pajn from this surgery for it not to be successful. The psychologist I went to prior offerd his aasistance post-op maybe yours can assist you. I hope this helps.

Exercise, work it out. I know that when I get really mad (hasn't happened in many years) I start cleaning and let my frustrations out that way.

I sat there trying to come up with things I can eat. But I also HATE being sick. And I hate hating myself. I made it out without doing either!!!!!!

Thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart.

Archimedes!!!! It took me a day and a half to get past that. I had to use all my magic on the first trial of those witches. And the snakes give you more magic as you kill them. Second trial use the rest of your magic on those spear chicks. And just slowly kill the guy with the hammer. It damn near drove me nuts.

Tomb raider is still around?! Jeez.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
