nomorefattypatty 329 Posted June 2, 2017 Don't be scared, it just makes more stress! I've had BED for many, many years. So far, I've found that RNY has almost completely squashed it for me. There have been a few times where I noticed it was a little *too* easy to eat something (for me it's crackers and chips). I took that as a HUGE red flag. I don't restrict myself from those foods, but I add on a very small amount at the end of a meal. NO Snacks with those trigger type foods. But on the whole, the urges are almost totally gone. PS--have you read Brain Over Binge? Game changer! And to the OP--I'm only 4 months out, but my mom is 3 years out. She eats like a cow, meaning she grazes all day! ;p She eats pretty much whatever she wants. The only thing that has given her trouble is mixing cashews with oranges. Random! Neither she nor I have dumped really.Thanks for letting me know, what was your experience with diet soda, I'm having the hardest time trying to stop drinking it and I can say I'm not doing well with that at all.Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
