The stuff I am craving is not healthy stuff, so I can't have it

You should try making low calories alternatives so you get the flavor without all the calories. View it as a challenge.

@@Hertsukfem31 - Make oven "fried" chicken breast. (Use almond meal instead of flour and you get a bit of Protein.

I have a recipe for pizza using finely chopped up cauliflower for the crust.

Not sure about the sandwiches, but I guess you could make lettuce wraps.

If you don't think about what you can have instead of what you can't, you'll drive yourself nuts. Part of what this surgery does is limit what we can eat while we relearn how to eat healthier. You have to start working on those replacements or you run the risk of being one of those who loses and then regains because they slip back into old ways.

I totally understand how tough it can be when we have a depression diagnosis--I have suffered with major depression for years. I know (for me anyhow) sometimes I get so wrapped up in "trying" so hard (to be positive, to eat right, to control cravings, etc etc etc) but like the Nike commercial--sometimes the more I "just do it" the more freeing it feels.

One foot in front of the other, one day at a time. Be good to yourself. . .

I feel so down most of the time and I always believed it's cause of my size but I am thinking now it mayb just one small part of one bigger issue!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
