Suggestion to increase your dopamine surges, exercise. It has been proved with research in depressed persons that exercise increase positive endorphins and elevates mood. So I suggest a couple of walk

Counseling is an excellent choice. The mental part of this journey is the hardest, getting your head to override your tummy is key to success. Good luck to you.

Im mew here, and i just neededto get some things off my chest...
So I start my 700 cal liver shrinking diet tomorrow, and will do that for two weeks. Then surgery is in very early November.
I'm just not understanding how they think I'm capable of doing 700 cals for TWO weeks without the help of something like the lap band. I mean isn't the lap band supposed to be a TOOL to help us do something we have a hard time doing on our own??? Like, say, eating very little food?
I'm just scared I won't have the willpower when my depression hits hard in the evening. I use food for the dopamine surges which lift my depression temporarily.
However, I will say this... Usually once I've been eating very little, and eating healthy on top of that, I start to find sugary foods disgusting, and I sometimes flat out forget to eat. So part of me thinks I will be ok, but mostly I'm nervous about the first 72 hours of it.
When I think of all that being heavy has put me through, I am so certain this is a great choice for me.
I don't suppose anyone else ever worried they would somehow fail, and stay heavy after the surgery??
