Eating fast lesson learned.



Recommended Posts

Why oh why do I keep doing this. I just made home made pizza and ate it fast. Now I feel like I'm having a heart attack. The heart burn is so painful. I know it will subside but I must NEVER do that again. I have done it before and cried. But yet here I am again. Suck the lesson Learned. MIND OVER MATTER. I need to stop bringing back the old habits. Arggg

Thanks Nancy

Yep....easy to fall back into old habits. Did it the other night with some white chicken chili. Just wasn't paying attention while talking at dinner and took a few bites too fast. Hit like a sack of bricks and I was done eating. Didn't overeat or anything - just too fast.

I'm also having to put my drinks away when I eat. Still feels unnatural to not drink while eating. Did it this morning without even thinking about it. Makes me mad at myself but it's still a new/learning process on habit changes. For the most part doing really well but it's amazing how quickly old habits can creep back in.

I'm still learning this lesson. It will be like I'm starving and will eat a bit too fast and wham! Here comes the pain.

I feel like this is a lesson best learned by experience. The first time you drink too fast, eat too fast, or overeat, you learn that pain and you don't repeat it. That is our tool working as intended to help us break bad habits.

Could not agree more. Some times we just need to learn things the hard way.

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

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
