I'm triggering her depression?



Recommended Posts

This hasn't happened to me yet but I fear it may...

.....

true friends should always be supportive, and find something else to do with you if it isn't eating right?

You should be able to go to any restaurant and be with your friends and let them eat what they want, and you eat what you should eat according to your plan.

I would not ask them to change in any way, unless you find that being in that environment triggers you to overeat. If it does then you can ask them to change, but unless you actually try it and see that it triggers you, it's not fair to ask your friends to give it up because you think it might be a problem. After all, you are the one who has embarked on this journey of change, so if there is any hardship to be borne, you should be the first person to bear it, then after you have done what you can, ask them to help. You should only ask your friends to make a change to support you if it's something that does cause you a problem, not something that might could possibly cause you a problem.

If you do find that going out with them triggers you to overeat when you make your best effort not to, then by all means tell them that you enjoy going out with them and you want to spend time with them and that you value their friendship, and that you tried eating with them but it triggered you to overeat and could they please still spend time with you taking part in some other activity.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
