Does anyone become weight loss obsessed?



Recommended Posts

I am 2.5 years post op and I find myself getting obsessed to lose weight to the point that I barely eat. I actually convince myself that food is repulsive and I'm not hungry. Just curios how common that is

This concerns me. Have you been evaluated for an eating disorder?

I would be concerned as well. Excited, motivated, committed, determined - all healthy. Obsessed is not. Good time to talk to your doctor - that's what they're there for. You can be certain that yours will not be the first time they've heard the problem and there is undoubtedly steps that will help you get back on track.

How are you doing in maintaining a healthy weight? Did you go below your goal; how much?

As stated above, seek help!

      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! 😞
