So who is buying the soda? Stop buying it. You are playing head games with yourself. This happens. Get back on the horse. One meal at a time, cut the carbs out. It's not that you fell off the wagon, it's that you get back on the wagon. Go get some sugar free popsicles or something to replace the binge sweets. You can do this one meal at a time. After 3 days the cravings will subside once you stop ingesting all those carbs. Add some good fats like avocado, coconut oil to help you feel sarisfied. Up your protein to 100grams. Get your bariatric materials out and reread them. Journal. Journal your food. Journal your gratitude.

What happens when two sleevers with ADD make a podcast? Exactly what you think. I'm Kristen, or @themorrigan.vsg and my cohost is Emily or @emilyamvsg. I'm 16 months out, and she's 6 years out. We've got a lot to talk about trust me. I'm a recovering Binge Eater, she's on a quest to find love while struggling with life after VSG, and we're just out here doing the thing, ya dig? We talk about weight, weight loss, weight gain, messed up childhoods, VSG, struggles and successes after surgery, being fat in the nineties, the soul crushing experience that is online dating, and to top it off, for the fellow Murderinos, we do ten minutes of True Crime at the end of every episode. Because they say stick to what you know. We want everyone who's going through all this, or about to, or just wants to kiki with us and share some giggles, to know that there's a podcast out there full of all the things you want to talk about but may not be able to. We sometimes have guests on to share their stories and backgrounds and experiences. We'll laugh, we'll get triggered, we'll ugly cry. We'll find out that the real treasure has been in our hearts all along. Or something. Get in losers - we're going podcasting! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Got the sleeve 7 days ago Down 12lbs. Feeling good Can't do more than 1 shake a day. Getting closer to 64 oz of fluid a day on the water side. Can usually sit down once a day and do 20z in an hour protein has been between 40-60g. Broke the 500cal mark yesterday. Feeling pretty good- got 6-7000 steps each of the last two days. Less and less pain everyday. I have moderate concerns that i am doing too much too fast. I'm also bored out of my skull, so there's that. Follow up appointment Wednesday

smack that smile back!

Yay, can’t wait to ugly cry....ahhhhgain 😏

Thanks for havin our backs Cheeseburgh! I'm gonna shout you out for that friend, provided I can remember to do so. Which is not incredibly likely if I'm being honest, given I just forgot how to operate the microwave at work for a minute. I was heating up ground turkey. You're welcome for this info. Can you tell this is Kristen? Probably, huh? I type just like I talk.

Wow chili lime cashews sound awesome! I know trader joes has a thai chili almond which is soooo yummy!! I know I am trying to train myself into thinking like "I don't eat that" but right now it's more "I can't eat that" soon my body and mind will learn, thank you 🙂

^^^ I completely understand this—more than I should!

Hi, Cheeseburgh. You've been so successful, which puts me a bit at ease. I already feel like I'm one of the "lucky ones." But, I'll take this bit of luck, too! Thanks.

Absolutely! It's about sharing our experiences with each other We know we're not alone in our WL journey. Also...our overall road to health. I'm really sorry about your mom and sister. Proud of you for breaking that cycle and making a change. I never had an issue with alcohol. I really don't drink often so it was never a thought really before or after surgery. I've had a drink on occasion, but it's usually just one. I never learned moderation with my food intake. I constantly indulged. Re-training your brain is so hard! We can do this and change our lives for the better in every way. I wish you the BEST of luck on your journey. It's not easy and everyone takes a different path. In the end, we CAN change our stories!! ❤️
