Feeling guilty after eating!

[Amour.de.lionne 63]

Every single time I eat I have these guilty feelings like every bite is going to harm me in every way now, crazy because before I would eat without a care but now it's just I feel so disgusted with eating any thing really unless it's completely healthy... Does anyone else have these feelings before surgery???

Guilt has its place... but if you're doing what your doctor instructed, stick to that and feel no guilt over any approved food. We're still allowed to enjoy life. If not, I would never have done this.

Just talked to my nutritionist Thur about this exact same thing so was glad to see u post this! It was helpful talking to her and also being able to whip out my app my fitness pal and actually show her exactly what i had been eating and get her input. I can say that was pretty helpful. She told me the goal is to make good choices from here on out but also to be able to live and eat normally also. It's all about done balance.

Yea I have to admit my choices have not been all good, I love to snack and especially that I quit smoking I can say my appetite has gotten a little bigger, but I am trying to work on it! I just hated that guilty feeling... I'm glad I'm not the only one wit these feelings so I can feel normal again!

I had that same talk with my nut.. I think mine stems from not wanting to regain the weight and the portion looks like sooo much! She said its all in my head and that it very common after this type if surgery to have those kinds of feelings

If I go out to a restaurant or stop at a fast food place which only consists of subway for me. I always feel guilty I feel like "why did I eat that" the truth is sometimes we can't cook or prepare something 100% healthy the key is if you are going to eat something you know is bad or you shouldn't then just work out a little harder the next time. Keep your body in balance. Don't feel guilty yes we have had surgeries to correct ourselves but you still need to live your life. Eating bad once in awhile will keep you sane just don't make bad habits and stay conscious of what you are doing.
