So this may come as a shocker to people but I'm a recovering food addict...yes probably the hardest thing I've done since giving birth. So since being sleeved ice lost 45lbs since August 12- so happy with that. But since I don't have a go to our a fall back relationship with food I've became depressed. I had my first real panic attack last night(so scary). My husband has no clue how do he can't relate or even support me. Why do I feel so lonely. I mean I can cross my legs now..even in that retrospect I should feel like a million bucks. My kids make me the best I am right now. I sometimes want a divorce I sometimes want to binge eat like no other. I know the best thing is counciling. But I don't have the time. I think about working out all the time but I don't...so...now what...oh and I pray alot..is it only in time..

So sorry for what you are going through! I feel somewhat like that too, I am/was an emotional eater. My sister and I joked about it last week, I ate when I was depressed, happy, angry, sad, etc...so really I just ate. So now what do I do. Drink (water for now). I hope you find your replacement soon. PS I just started back to the gym and it has helped my attitude.

Sounds like you really need to talk to someone. Try to find sometime to squeeze it in.

There are some things only a professional can help us with.

You've done great so far, don't sabotage yourself. Stick with it and try to find someone way talk with a professional. If you binge, you know you will only feel worse and then the spiral begins.

Reach out.

Best wishes..

      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.
