  1. Purging after surgery

    emtakespictures posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hi, I had a VSG about two weeks ago. For the past week or so, I've been craving and eating too quickly and then purposely purging my meals. Sometimes numerous times a day. I'm scared for myself but I'm even more scared about not losing the expected weight. I haven't been following the diet to a t, eating certain solid and tolerable foods, and I'm worried the surgery will be a failure. I thought I wouldn't have cravings anymore but I do. Advice? Tips? What happens if I purge too much? Thanks
