I was sleeved on January 14 the and I also found/find it a constant struggle with the head hunger. There are some days that I will go for three or four walks around the block just to make sure I stop eating or don't Overeater. I read the posts a lot here to help me as well. I don't have the answer but I wanted to let you know you're far from alone.

Maybe go back to drinking couple shakes a day, one pureed meal and a snack. Watch carb and fat intake. I advanced my diet too fast b/c I was doing well then members on here scared me and said it was way too soon so I have scaled back on soft diet and drinking just Protein Shakes... I had some yogurt as my snack. Make sure to get in your Water too.

I would suggest a therapist. They can help work through this with you, and get to the root. I see one twice a month and have found it to be very helpful on my journey. You can Google one who specializes in obesity.

Good luck.

I really appreciate u taking the time. I stooped coming here after I posted needing help and all I got was negativity from ppl. Judgemental ppl should not post on here. I was so fragile and I took what these ppl said to heart. Then I realized that they dont know me.. they dont know my situation.

Anyways. Walking sounds great. I havent been able to take my normal "head" meds for about 2 weeks now so thats really messin with me too. The powder get stuck and I throw up.

I guess I will try again tomorrow. Thats a new day right

are you putting powder in the blender? I blend it really good.. like at least a minute. I can't stand any grittiness. I am sorry I thought you were only a few weeks out. What do you typically eat on a daily basis? Maybe start food journaling and see your nutritionist. Has to be a reason for it and I am sure you will figure it out. What up with your 'head meds'? Most of those cannot be stopped abruptly. I hope your prescriber is aware, I would hope for you to have any bad withdrawal symptoms. I work in psych so if you want to inbox me feel free. I am sorry ppl have been negative... sometimes people lack tact... I sometimes have that problem too. You have to learn to ignore and when you do learn please share your secret with me ;)
