8 months out - it's still an eating disorder - but I wouldn't change a thing

[Jennifer Ostermeier 45]

I am 8 months post sleeve. I am 12 pounds from my goal weight which I set...not my doctor. I wanted to get out of the "unhealthy BMI" range. There is a chance I'll lose more than that, but for now, 12 pounds to go.

I have written a blog for many years, it started with looking for plus size clothing, learning about the Health at Any Size movement and now I write about binge eating disorder and alcoholism. (Yep, I got the double whammy)

Just wanted to put it out there, that the sleeve has helped me so much, but I still see my eating disorder evolving and trying to manipulate the crap out of me. The sleeve is my tool, I am full, I try not to eat any more. But sometimes I do overeat. And that's okay.

So if your full and continue to eat it doesn't cause any uncomfortable or pain?

You can easily eat soon after a meal. At 2+ years out, I can eat 10 minutes after my last snack or meal. Doing that all day long is what's called "grazing". Early out, even up to a year and a half post op, I seemed to be satisfied between meals. Now it's getting harder for me to stay satisfied and not graze.
