Ok so I began my day wirh a few sips of Protein Drink. I swore I was just going to do liquids since i get so full quickly. By lunch time i felt hungray - at least thought I was. I ate my first mashed potatoes. It went pretty good but , then i was full. I instantly felt guilty for eating. Then when i got home I was like I guess ill eat. Just because ! I could only eat a few bites. I was full. I saved my dinner. Two hours later I thought I felt hungary so i finished what I started. Now im disgusted with myself! I feel so sick because of being so full. I keep messing up. I don't know why am I doing this ! Im so upset wirh myself.

I am confused. What phase are you on?

Why would you feel guilty for eating if you are hungry? We are actually supposed to eat in order to live and be healthy.

Mashed potatoes may not have been a great choice, especially if you are still on liquids, but self-hatred, disgust, and guilt are not helpful.

Do you have a counselor or therapist you can talk to about your feelings?

Just focus on getting in your Protein and fluids. If you feel like you must eat mashed potatoes, then try adding some Protein (unflavored Protein powder, chicken Soup Protein Powder, or even grated/melted cheese would add protein).

As I seem to do often, I'm gonna agree with @@Inner Surfer Girl again...

If you focus on your Protein and Water, the rest 'should' fall into place...

There are gonna be hiccups along the way..

We all had/have them...

Even me...

And I'm AWESOME!!!

So don't be too hard on yourself...

You'll get your head around stuff soon...

Let us know how you go...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
