What factors dictate "fast" and "slow" losers?

[ProudGrammy 8,322]

problem is Portion Control and emotional binge eating.

i think thats why most of us had the sleeve (portion control, binging )

the sleeve will "assist" you in loosing the weight

but it won't/doesn't work on its own

once you are sleeved, on solids - you will feel the "restriction" that the sleeve gives you

that will help your portion problem - you are supposed to measure food - and ONLY eat that amount

as far as your binge eating - get a grip

don't know what else to say - we all have to deal with that in our own way

this is not a magic surgery

you must follow all the "rules" with Water, Protein, eating slowly et al for the rest of your longer, healthier, happier life

you are pre-op - try and practice some of those important Water rules now

drinking 64 oz water, not drinking with food/meals - waiting up to 1 hour after you eat before you drink again

these are just some of the essential new rules you must follow

getting an early start prior to surgery.....

what do you have to loose??

good luck

take care

Thanks. I've actually seemed therapy for my eating habits, and I'm quite ready for this surgery. I'm ready for the change, I'm ready to not be a prisoner to food anymore. I want to be healthy for my kids and myself. This is a tool that's I'm ready to rock!
