    Food torture

    This is very counterproductive behavior. Watch porn instead of food, unless food is your porn in which case seek psychiatric help! Seriously though, don't do this to yourself!

    Food torture

    I agree, it's an emotional roller coaster! And I think I'm going to stop watching the videos. I know I can't have that food nor could I tolerate it but this is a mental transformation as much as if not more so than physical. I hope through all the changes I can talk things out here.

    Food torture

    My spidey senses are telling me there is something unhealthy about this. It feels like the same happy centers in my brain that fired off when I would overeat are doing the same thing when I watch these videos. I'm thinking this might be a way of succumbing to head hunger without actually eating. Physically, my body wouldn't let me eat the type of stuff I'm watching because it makes me sick to think about it, but let's be real here... my head hunger is what got me as big as I am now (working in conjunction with physical hunger). I chose to eat a pint of ice cream instead of an apple when my stomach growled. I'm worried if I keep doing this it's gonna reinforce my head hunger and once the physical hunger returns it's gonna be bad. I'm not gonna do this anymore.

    Post surgical circulation

    According to the internet, there can be several reasons why you feel numbness or a tingling sensation after surgery. https://www.verywell.com/numbness-and-tingling-after-surgery-3156878 Numbness after any surgical procedure is expected for several weeks to months following. As the nerves to the area are traumatized and will then experience a temporary neuropraxia, a transient loss of nerve conduction. This usually resolves over the next 6-12 weeks, but depending on the procedure performed, sometimes much longer.

    Getting and waiting for approval is so nerve wracking and I feel for you. Each insurance co is different. Mine never had me document that many yrs. My PCP had me try pills so that was on record but then just listed I had tried WW, TOPS, etc. I sincerely wish you the best and hope there's no delay for your July date. Hopefully they will let one year slide. Good luck.

    Also, women, tell your people who do your mammograms. My gf got called back in because they thought they'd confused her scans with someone else's. Then she told them she'd lost 110 lbs since the last time they saw her. [emoji23]
