I survived but it really does suck!!!

That's just backwards from the way I think of my own Bad Habits....

generally the Belly Beast is trying to take over the its irrational control of what's left of my little grey cells....

We all have ways of dealing with what we recognize is not a good thing though.

I have little to no hunger not because it's a physical feeling....for me it is a mental thing....

The band tells my brain I am full, therefore there is no need to eat, and the desire to do so does not exist....yet it happens even if I have not eaten anything at all.....

It is very hard to explain, but it is very real once I learned to understand it....

Then when I do eat, the band then gives me the physical feedback as to when to stop.....and I do not mind stopping, because I'm not that hungry and did not have the desire to do so in the first place.....

To this day, I have NEVER felt full from eating....not sure what other people are feeling when they say so...
