It's probably an emotional eating habit. So common. It's a pattern hard to break, but you can do it. Find a hobby or something to occupy your mind. I used to be drawn to the kitchen when I was not hungry and would eat 2 or 3 different things. Since surgery I try to make it a point to find things to do or dwell on the fact I am full and content. Just recognizing the fact you want to eat when not hungry is half the battle. You have this beat!!! Best wishes for great success. :)

Instagram and Facebook are just as bad, I'm not sure why everybody takes pictures of their food but it is really getting on my nerves!

Yeah! Why do they do that??? I guess they always did it but I wasn't as aware of it!

I only watch stuff I DVR so I can fast forward through the commercial's lol.

Im just sucking on things. Hubby had some spanish rotisserie chicken the other day & he doesn't eat the skin, I sucked all the seasoning off the darn thing and I was find. Another day he left a piece of bacon on the stock, I sucked all the flavoring out of that. And yesterday he made Tina fish, I ran my finger around the inside of the bowl and licked that lmbo. Im fine if I just taste it. Lol

Lol... I haven't tried sucking chicken skin. But I have licked my fair share of sour cream and onion Pringles... Just having the taste in my mouth makes me feel like I've eaten some.

      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.
