Neck and shoulder pain

By Tiffany0818

· 777 views

So it's Day6 and I still have the most horrible pain in my neck and shoulder. Yesterday I went to see my Dr and I lost 11 lbs in a week and 2 lbs from before surgery so 13lbs in a week and a half. I'm super happy and motivated even more but this pain will not go away and I'm so over it. But my question is does anyone have mental hunger? I can't seem to stop thinking about food, is it cause I haven't eaten in over a week or I'm really emotionally attached to food?? This is driving me nuts....

    I'm day six today! I truly believe its "emotionally attached to food." I have same attachment :( I'm normally super busy, but now that I'm home, I'm watching T.V and BOY do they advertise FOOD! Hope GOD helps us! Good Luck!

    I've been reading about mental hunger for a few days now. xchubba you made a great point about television. I may have to stock up on books and limit TV to just the weather.

    Continued success everyone on their journey.

    It took me a week and a half to get rid of that neck pain. The gas pain is unbearable!!!
