I am worrying myself sick about everything. I think I'm not loosing weight. I am eating to much. I am ruining my sleeve. Ugh! I would have been better off with the diabetes it seems. At least I knew what to expect. I seem to be hungry a lot. Why?

And breathhhhhhhhhh!

I think its natural for us to worry I would worry every pain was a leak, I was overfilling, I would eat or drink to much and burst my stomach wide open etc etc

We get worried because we can’t see it and know ok its fine chill.

How did you cope with stress before?

Did you emotionally eat?

This could be why you constantly think your hungry because you might have been a stress/emotional eater and it’s a habit for x amount of years and your go to comfort thing that’s being triggered while your driving yourself nuts right now.

Or maybe its acid and you just need to take some sort of acid thing mine are fasttabs not sure if you have one to take or not if not look into it as acid can make you feel hungry too.

Don’t beat yourself up and give your self a hard time for stressing it happens its natural but you will learn whats ok and how much is ok, do what I do use the exact same cups, plates. bowls, cutlery for everything then you soon learn how far to eat or drink with no issues.

Thanks I needed to hear that. I had already thought about buying like the set of baby dishes. My daughter and son had them when they were little. It comes with a plate bowl and cup. I have had a few days I have just felt bad. No energy. But since my surgery I have had a lot go on. My husband was hospitalized for four days. So I haven't had much of a recovery. Also I had gastroparesis before the surgery I had hoped it would improve but don't look like it.

Sounds like a lot of stress on your plate hun this can add to acid in your stomach and why your hungry, it’s not really hungry is acid that’s bubbling away in there making you feel hungry.

Its easier said than done but when your spiralling in the worry and driving yourself nuts you have to force yourself to stop take a deep breath and calm down get the monkey chatter in your head to chill and be quiet so you can gather your thoughts and take control again.

Then just try to push things aside while you deal with one thing at a time.

If your stressed about yourself then allow it to happen for 10mins then chill yourself out calm down and think of things to change your mindset or what is working.

If its sorting the kids out allow it to happen and push the rest aside etc etc

Then it shouldn’t be so overwhelming because you’re not trying to deal with EVERYTHING all the time all at once just one thing at a time the rest can bugger off till its in the number one spot.
