I am finding myself binging a night like I used to. I guess I have a lot on my mind these days and obsessed with worrying about losing weight. Anyone have any suggestions?

Nights are the hardest! Especially after everyone goes to bed. I'm a secret binger and still have those tendencies. The best thing I can say, is make sure to keep all trigger foods out of the house! If you don't have them you can't eat them...

I also find myself tempted to snack late at night after the hubs has gone to bed. I try to have plenty of Snacks on hand that are OK for me (high Protein, low carb), but it's hard to hold myself to having just one serving. I don't have a solution, but you're not alone in the struggle!

Maybe a Diet Swiss Miss hot cocoa? Only 25 calories. Nice at bedtime.

what do you gravitate towards? Sweet? Salty? Savory? I like the hot chocolate idea but not so great if you're dying for some French fries. How about some string cheese? Edamames? Some hi Fiber Cereal with a little milk? Eggface's site has some great snack ideas and they look delicious! Just google "world according to egg face". I've also found that a lot of times, I mistake thirst for hunger. So when I feel like snacking, I drink a glass of Water first and usually I don't feel cravings after that.

How can any of you eat enough to constitute a "binge"? I swear I really can't fit that much food in one sitting...there's no room.

It wasn't a lot if food but it sure felt like it. I couldn't seem to find something to satisfy me. But I only had a small cup of dole pineapple and a cracker with Peanut Butter

When you get further out you will be able to eat more... Trust me.

Also when binging we eat wait eat wait eat...

It totally depends on the day. Some day sweet but mostly salty

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
