Confused!!

[bannsleeve 22]

Rather than being excited for last nutritionist appointment and first pre-op with Dr that helps keep you motivated and excited. Instead I find I'm not starving but could eat everything in the house. Motivation Has become slim to non. Never felt like this is the previous 5 months on program. Stress maybe? Comforting my surgery fear with food? I DON'T KNOW AAHH but I have to turn this negativity around. . Anyone else dealt/dealing with this?

My guess is, like me, you comforted yourself with food. This was a huge shock to me. I had no idea how much I used food to feel better. Also, I wasn't super excited as surgery got closer. I was scared. Just guessing here-but hope you get your enthusiasm back. I had the surgery two months ago and feel great now.

Thank you SO much! Your guessing was spot on. I have used food in times of fear, happiness, sadness and every other emotion. With the previous 5 months I've done really well learning to deal with those emotions in other ways until recently. I am however, day by day getting back my motivation to keep fighting the fight! My excited has also been replaced with fear and I think that's hear to stay until surgery is done. Congrats on the surgery btw!! Looking forward to being on the other side

Ah hell yea ... My last weight management is August 18th. I'm the same way. I'm thinking it's the fact that I'm have food funerals. [emoji57] I know after the surgery all bets are off.
