The last few weeks have been tough but I’ve been able to get past them. In the last 3 days I’ve struggled with my demons more than I have in months. I’ve been bingeing and ignoring all the lapband rules. I feel depressed, angry, and powerless. I’m being selfish. I’ve done so well and now I feel like I’m going to F everything up. I’ve been to my therapist, spoken to my friends, prayed, and I’m still waiting for relief from these feelings. Please, I need an angel to tell me its going to be alright…

So sorry! I wish had a magic wand to send you the strength and courage you need.

I know that you can do this - but you have to believe you can do this. Start fresh tomorrow and forget about the past few days - don't beat yourself up. You can't change the past, but you certainly have the power to make better choices in the future.

Is there a support group near you. It would be great if you could find other people in your area facing the same challenges.

Chin Up

tomorrow is a new day

I am with you! I nkew I had issue with food, that is why I had the surgery. I was aware. But somehow, with the band, and the diet the issue with food really seem to larger, bigger.. like the volume got turned up really loud. I do not have words of encourgement right now because I am in the same dark place. I saw a therapist for the first time in years... I go back to see her this Saturday. Keep talking to people.

Be kind to you.

Try to fight the bad tape running in your head.

So you failed this meal, try to make the next meal better!

I am trying to this, because I know it true, even though I am not feeling it.

Hang in there, Lots love your way!
