i feel the same way as you, i stil don't get an answer to myself on what to do. i'm upset at my friends, my parents, myself, and i feel like everything is too much, but i try to do intensive sport when this kind of feeling come to me, but still not working for me. if you find an issue, tell me!

our bodies are feeling defenseless food used to be our weapon and now we are open, and our minds will make us feel so different. I'm that way still after 15 weeks post band. Its a weekly thing, one week is good, one week is bad and all we can do is muddle through it. Don't sabatoge the work we have done, its so easy to fall back into those easy eating habits we don't even realize it. You are NOT ALONE.

I am three years post band, and have lost 200 pounds. I have gone thru the same feelings at times, but for different reasons. The first year can be trying and you deal with a range of emotions. One day at a time, you have to trust the system and keep focusing on the positive gains to date. As is the old cliche saying, pretty soon the bad days are not as bad, and the good days begin to accumulate more often. This food stress is a big deal and is hard ot break old patterns. When I went thru it I focused on work, exercise, and doing something positive for myself every day and would build on that. Good luck.

I hated EVERY single protein shake I tried. I spent so much money & felt miserable. I finally found UNJURY Chicken Soup which appealed to my salty cravings and added Any Whey Protein (I ordered mine through Amazon) to Carbmaster Yogurt. But a shake, kill me now!!!!!!
I know it's hard, but the liquid protein is a very short period - soon you will be getting your protein from real foods & never have to have another protein supplement unless you truly find one you enjoy.
