BDME: Out of all the mean comments I've seen on this website, this might be the worst. Stop being such a b***h.

unfortunately that was the first thing I lost and then my boobage

@Dairymary I'm so sorry you went through all that! @Hoping052017 how many carbs were recommended?

following this discussion

I graze junk food too at times. Self-defeating behavior. sigh.

I've heard nothing but bad things about the band

meant to ask how many carbs a day you guys consume now? Thanks.

I've only lost 38 pounds. My own fault. Didn't do what I was suppose to do. Became a carb junkie again. Was consuming 2000+ calories a day at times. This week I have been trying to get back to doing the right thing. Not doing so bad. 9 weeks until my 1 year surgiversary so I want to lose more by then obviously.

Thank you, Sajijoma. Day two of reset. Yesterday sucked but I was 99% successful. At bed time I was starving and couldn't sleep so I had a few bites of shredded cheese and that did the trick. I think I get confused about when to drink Water. So I have some Protein shake and wait 30 minutes before I drink anything? but then don't drink 30 mins before "eating" again?

no what is it?

I had no change either way. Still a problem. Actually I went to the derm yesterday and he prescribed antibiotic, cream, gel, and a washing regimen. Said no peanuts, shellfish, caffeine, butter, or high fat dairy.

I developed a preoccupation with food early on. Enough was never enough. There were times I would eat from sun up to sun down and throw up at the end of the day because my stomach couldn't take it any more.

So I started the 5 day reset today. Having atkins shakes which I think are okay content wise. Thank you everyone for all of your input.

Thank you all for commenting and giving me suggestions and encouragement. I think I will look into finding a therapist. I guess I wasn't really ready but tried to convince myself that I was and that everything would work out.
