I'VE TOTALLY FAILED MYSELF IN LOSING weight... lost 110lbs total.. but since Dec 2016 I'VE put back on 45lbs... CANNOT seem to grasp my emotions.. taking care of my 74yr old MOM since Nov last year.. whom was diagnosed with stage 3 uterine cancer... depression.. anxiety disorder (since death of my younger brother 2011) I'M ALWAYS STRESSED OUT. and find myself ALWAYS STRESS EATING... crying in middle of day out of nowhere... TRYING TO GET HOLD OF EVERYTHING BUT afraid I stretched out my pouch BEYOND control..

@kimmbo sounds like you have had a lot of things tugging at you. God bless your family. I can’t imagine going through that.
Your not a failure. Like most of us on here ( some won’t admit it [emoji51]) but, we eat when we are stressed. I had my sleeve done 12/2/14. Believe me, I wish I had the swelling back! Lol
I emotionally eat, Ive currently gone off the beaten path and have bad food choice days ( more often than not).
If you have time, seek out a good councilor who specializes in food addiction or just addiction in general.
I have one and it helps. Not for everyone, but, between the passing of your brother and your poor Mum being sick it wouldn’t hurt right? For me, having an outlet, time away from my stresses is a huge relief.
I wish I had more to say. Let’s hop on the same boat and ride this river together.
Your not a failure..... your human[emoji173]️

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
