Grazing a bit too much. Reaching for food when you know you should be done for the day. How do you make yourself say no!! I try like Niki to " just say no " but its really hard. Try not to have bad stuff in the house. but even reaching for another piece of turkey at some point is too much. Gotta just say no!!

I tend to drink a warm cup of chicken broth. 5 calories per bullion cube, and it tides me over for a bit. If I'm still hungry an hour later, I eat something.

I stalled for a bit because I started grazing a lot.

I too am having the same problem. I did well all day and blew it big time tonight. I can not gain weight. I have gotten rid of all my big clothes and bought new ones. The undergarments were very pricey. I just crave all the junk. I try to get back on track and wham there I go eating again. If anyone finds a solution tell me.

There is not one, its just self control here. The only option I could recommended is to find something to occupy your time then you may not want to eat. I know if I start talking to someone or doing something else I don't eat. I tend to have this problem when I get bored or tired . Good luck.

I do well until the rest of the house goes to bed (8pm, mind u, were not talking about 4 yr olds either!) And I'm watching tv. Then I start to pick at dinner leftovers, whatever sweet thing we have on hand, or enjoy a glass of red wine. I usually still don't go over my 1,000 daily calories tho.

No clue how to say no. Its why I got wls. Cuz I didn't know hot to say no. If u find the secret, plz share it. U will make trillions...

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
