I NEED HELP I NEEDE TO KNOW IM NOT HE ONLY PERSON THIS HAS HAPPENED TO:confused::confused::smile2::confused::eek::confused::smile::confused:

Don't be ashamed! Just start over!!! If you read other posts many of us are struggling through before our first fill. Apparently it's very very common to have little to no restriction and be starving all the time. What does your surgeon want you eating 3 weeks out? For most of us it seems to be soft/mushy stuff. Stick with what's approved for you right now so you don't mess up your surgery (even if you're eating more than you are supposed still stick with the approved stuff), make sure you're getting plenty of water and protein and get your booty moving. Nobody said this was going to be easy. This is your first real post band challenge and you can beat it! Keep your eye on the prize, a healthy you. It will get easier after you get your fills and get some resistance but until you get there do your best and don't beat yourself up too hard. You can do this, you really can!

First off, are you able to get rid of all the food in your cabinets that is off limits right now? It is much harder to cheat if you have to work to do it.

Also, you went thru such a serious operation, now you got to just buck up and do it. Now is the most important time. It is easy to fall back into bad habits, start making some good ones instead. Next time you feel like you are gonna eat something wrong, go take a walk, ride your bike, do some meditation/prayer exercises, do anything but just dont eat.

I think you can start over right now. If the head hunger is getting to you and you don't feel motivated to move atleast get on here and look at some of the inspiring stories. Maybe if you strive to do what others have done it won't seem so hard and you can be the mentor to someone later that is having the same struggles you are having now. I wish you all the best and know you can do it if you put your heart in it.
