@erica_ozzy73--- that too is one of my fears... that I'll still be mentally hungry after going through all this.

I listened to an audiobook Ultimate Gastric Sleeve Success. It was a little preachy but he says a lot.. "If you don't change your behaviours you'll get the same results you always have".

I am not busy trying to list all the behaviours that have gotten me to this point because I'm not going through all of this for it to fail!

Anyone find they wanna eat for the sake of eating???..

7 weeks post op and the horrible habit never went away.

I drink heaps of Water and cups of tea to trick myself but bloody hell its hard..

the head hunger games are full on.

Given in the evening When I'm home with everyone it's so hard.

Distracting myself isn't easy either as I know what I'm trying to do lol...

Im now day 4 post op and the pain of eating is putting me off.

In past when loosing weight it is all about will power, and practising will power. Telling yourself no and having the mental strength. It is definately a muscle you have to continue to work out. There are a lot of youtube clips about practising will power and how to increase this. Hope this helps in some way. All else fails go to bed early :-p

hi there, I am an Aussie living abroad and would love to join your FB group if that is ok as I speak more in kgs etc ;-) But if I join the group will it show up on others feeds that I joined? I haven't shared my journey yet with anyone and don't want it out of the bag because of joining a group or commenting on etc. thanks

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
