RNYKristin 4 Posted August 20, 2012 The hardest thing is this underlying feeling of uneasiness. I think it's from not processing feelings. I used to eat when I was upset. Now I don't. So I need to find something else to help me cope. Working out helps. Talking helps. I think it's time to start that counseling they talked about in class. 9 weeks out and -50 pounds. I think this is my biggest problem and you just brought it to the surface for me. I have been feeling very anxious and I can't figure out why. Now it all makes sense!! Thank you!!! 1 punk.rock.mama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted August 20, 2012 Finding what to eat. If I happen to be on the go I'm not thinking straight so I think carefully if I go in this restaurant will the food be greasy & I'm gonna vomit. Will I look like a fool ordering food to have less then half then have to take it home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaniG 54 Posted August 20, 2012 My hardest problem post op is not dumping! It sounds positive but it's not! I know in my head I shouldn't eat certain things (and I don't give in) but I also know I could eat it without getting sick. Know what I mean? It's mind over matter!

Stacey Dayonne 69 Posted August 20, 2012 For me the worst is behind me. The pre op liquid diet was the worst. I have really had any problems. I lost 82lbs. Mind over matter. I love working out now, I love the look on people's faces when they see me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4Kimmy2 56 Posted September 10, 2012 I'm having surgery on the 26th and i'm missing not drinking so much so fast. I'm doing it now so I can be use to it. I know there's no drinking and eating but sometimes I forget. I never knew how much and how fast I really drank until i've learned to limit myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
