I’m month away from having gastric sleeve,

i know I’m supposed to eat as healthy as possible, but I have food addiction issues. Anybody else suffer from binge eating disorder? And were you successful with weight loss and maintenance after surgery?

I have not had my surgery yet....2 days I will. But I struggle with all this at times as well and 1 thing I have been working on is listening to my stomach and not my head. It's hard ik but keep at it. My doctor doesn't require a liquid diet so I have been really struggling these last few weeks to keep myself in check before my surgery. Best of luck to you! :-)

Sunshine Princess🌞OMG I completely forgot it was getting that close! Hey I will be praying for a smooth surgical day and good healing for you, but honey it has got to be so exciting. I hope I'm within a month of mine, I'll find out on the 24th. I so want to join you in surgery-land! I guess I'm not as patient as I should be.😪

My surgery is scheduled for May 24th as well. My doctor also doesn’t require a pre-op diet but I’m trying to do it for the next 3 days just to see if I can and to “detox” from all the crap I’ve been eating. It’s only been a few hours and I’m already trying to convince myself to eat.

well guys, I've been recording on My Fitness Pal, most days I don't even make the calorie count the app assigned, well yesterday was screwy, no I didn't binge, I just didn't eat my vegie, Protein and salad like I usually Dom Replaced 2 meals with shakes, and that lowered it down. I think they had planned to review a months worth, well they'll get 3 and half weeks and they'd better like it. I didn't get around to reactivating it until May 1st. Didn't even do it,on this smartphone. Now don't laugh too bad, this sounds silly, but I've forgotten the password for this one so did it on my Samsung instead. Remember how everyone made fun of President,Imelda Marcos of the Philippines for having closet after closet of shoes. Well, I'm like that with cellphones and each one has a name. That way when I update my contact list you might think I have a lot of friends, nope 4 of them are phones. If I'm weird it's an interesting weird, isn't it? This one is Malachy, because that means messenger, the one My Fitness Pal is on is registered as DF Magee, although I usually call it Moon Cat for the cute wallpaper theme, then I have a Nought Android( the latest currently available) that's Antonio Sanchez and an older Lollipop called Toto Ferguson. My son only has two, an aged ,well a couple years old and in electronic land that's practically senile named Fernando after the Abba song, he keeps saying he's going,to retire it but it has his songs from Google Play on it and as long as poor old Fernando can still call out he hates to do it. When I got Moon Cat he wanted a new one too, its contact,name is Eugene Throckmorten and it has a Moon Panda motif, he just still keeps old Fernando active too. So Frustr8 and her mini me son, we are phone weird! Did I give you a little chuckle❓😝

Same. my 2 week pre op diet isn't all liquid. I can have shakes, Protein Bars, fruit and veggie. problem is, most Protein bars have chocolate in them and that's a HUGE no no for me. it has sparked bad eating habits. I've got 1 week to go and I had to cut them from my meals. I replaced them with home made Soup instead. it kind of surprised me. I had burgers and dogs over the weekend. but as of this morning i'm putting my own foot down. the last thing I want is for my liver to be too large and get denied the surgery. so i'm peptalking myself. I can do this!

      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.

      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!!
