its not to hunger pain its the endless ta pe in my head talking about food. When my band has the right fill it goes away. It seems once a week that tape is the worst. If ignoring worked I wouldn't have need the band

It does not happen to me as much now, but if I think I have head hunger I really do try to redirect my brain by doing something or go for a walk. I also try to drink Water and that often helps.

Sorry Line-dancer, but in the beginning right after surgery, when your restriction isn't enough and even head hunger, has to be ignored to succeed in WLS.IMHO

Great post Sharon! That's just how I've been doing it and it seems to be working. That's where our phrase "if you want it bad enough, you will do it".

God Bless Girlfriend!

i feel most people are mentally stronger then they think they are

all the inner demons we all face and the yo yo dieting, its no wonder we are scared to let the band work...why should it as everything else failed..

once we face it head on, my moment was the biggest number i ever weighed on a scale

that gave me the gumption to face it head on...no more crossing the street for me...i say bring it.

as for head hunger, its true......i realized it during pre op

all comes down to mind over matter...i want to get healthy bad enough to do whatever i have to make it happen...something i dibbed want power..

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
