Why oh why!! I feel like I am falling back into my old habits. I find myself eating when I am not hungry. I am 10 weeks out, and I am not losing weight as fast as I would like, so I think I am just getting depressed about it and find myself eating. Granted, I can't eat as much as I used to, but still!! Why am I doing this. Grrr

You said it yourself - habit. So, time to make a new one. Find out why you're eating when you're not hungry. Are you bored? Tired? Thirsty? When you notice you're eating, stop and go do something else. Replace it with something healthy like walking (which also helps reduce hunger so bonus!). Nobody has to tell you that this is a tool, not a fix. If we don't change the habits that got us here in the first place, the surgery is for nothing. Don't beat yourself up, don't be hard on yourself, but you're the only one who can make the decision to change.

Old habits are hard to break. I'm 6mths out and feel like I'm losing control. I'm down 97lbs but totally messing up. I eat whatever and whenever. We need to get a grip.

Thanks guys!!!

Hey Shelly I am 10.5 weeks and found I was doing the same thing eating at night but not hungry. So I stopped having so many snacks, started taking a prevacid type medicine and bingo I am really now not hungry don't want to eat at night. So what I found is that 6 small meals is too much I didn't need it. My weight loss is great and I couldn't be happier. Give it a try. You can do this!!

Hi Amazon13. I take an omeprazole everyday. I think I need to find something to do. How much have you lost?
