Lol I feel you on that one!! My mom came over to take me to the hospital. When I opened the door she had two trays of Cookies and a cookie hanging out of her mouth!! :)

We are taking the kids to Disney land on Christmas so I don't have to sit around and watch the food fest!!

Sorry to hear that. If it were me I'd tell them to hide the knives !! It is unheard of for anyone in our family to not be there fir Christmas and at first I felt selfish of not going. But then I realized I've lived my life worry about other people and their needs. Now is the time to think about ME ;)

I'm going to lose it if my husband complains about being hungry one more time as i'm choking down some Protein, and then he goes and gets Mcdonalds. :(

When you get cravings like that it's coming from your head and not your body. Just stop and realize that it's not something your body needs and it's just something your head wants. You won't starve by not eating those things. You can beat this.

Agree.

You need to find out your triggers and it sounds like one of them is the TV.

However, know that later, your real hunger will come back. For me, losing the weight was fairly easy. I did what they told me to do and I also exercised. Still do, almost daily. I am a year out now. My real hunger is back, although it is better than it was before the sleeve. Maintaining the weightloss is harder. Much harder.

Now is the time to learn to eat properly, use that sleeve as a tool and start healthy habits.

Good luck!

      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! 😞
