feel so guilty



Recommended Posts

Well I am not sure why I am feeling so guilty but I am, it was my daughters birthday party on sunday and I had some cake, then today I started off at 1pm with a wendys chili, dinner 5oz filet and some whole grain rice, 1 small pillsbury bis, then about 2 hours later had another slice of that evil cake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Felt so bad eating that I went down stairs and walked on the treadmill at a 4.5 incline for 50 minutes, I was banded on june 3, 2011 and had a starting weight of 343 and I am currently at 268, I have 1.5 in my band that me and the doctor kind of flipped a coin on it because I have lost alot in a few months..............Just wondering who else feels guilty when they cheat!

If you make food or certain foods "bad" you will eventually binge on them. It's cake. Everything in MODERATION. It looks like you're doing great. Take a deep breath and realize you're okay. You're not going to gain all of your weight back from 2 pieces of cake. The all or nothing mindset will kill you in the long run.

I sometimes eat something that I know isn't the best, like cake! I too feel guilty, but I have to tell myself eating a small piece is ok every once and a while, otherwise I'd binge on it!

Good luck!!

They are not good foods and bad foods think of them as always and sometimes foods instead. So eat mainly always foods(protein , veg , etc)and have a little bit of the others sometimes!

Me! I felt guilty last night AND this morning. My son, who was in town, wanted to cook dinner for his dad and me. He fixed a wonderful dinner of enchilada and black Beans. I ate the whole enchilada AND the black Beans. That enchilada was so good, and after dinner I found out why - he used Heavy Cream in it along with cheese, chicken, etc. He also had a dessert for us - I ate one bite and told him I was full. I was - but it was partly because I had seen that heavy cream in the refrigerator. I SHOULD have cut it in half, but I did not. I ATE it all, and the band did not stop me from eating! I did not feel full because of the band. HELP!!!!

Then, this morning, as I was getting ready to leave for work, my husband reminded me that I had eaten the whole enchilada last night. RIGHT back to feeling guilty!

I did go to range of motion and Water walking exercise tonight, but it does not aleviate my guilt. AND, WHY didn't the band stop me from eating that much???

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
