Great! That has been my problem all my life. I would “mess” up one day and spend the next three months punishing myself gaining more weight. My roommate size 4, body fat 11. She pigs out like no one business but the next day she is back to normal. That is something I’ve never had but that is the difference between her and me. Having this surgery has taken the hunger away thank goodness. I love how we can all share on Here. I’m surrounded by in shape people so of course they can’t even imagine what I’m going thru nor would I care to share lol.

I had a bit of the banana pudding dessert yesterday, but didn’t touch it today. I just recalled how cloyingly sweet it was and that helped stop any temptation I may have had!

Any time I wanted to snack today, I grabbed a cuppa coffee to keep it at bay. I really enjoy a hot cup with a spot of nutmilk in it, so it still feels like an indulgence. Gotta scale back my caffeine intake when I get back to my real life on Monday. 😂

I can totally relate to that! I've noticed some new changes in me since having surgery (7/31), in the last couple of weeks I've noticed that I don't want to overeat. I did once and almost but didn't get sick. It was not a good feeling and I didn't overeat on purpose. I've also noticed that food doesn't give me the same level of satisfaction as it has in the past. In a way, that's sad...hahaha. But really, I'm happy about that. I still get this head hunger sometimes and just want snacky stuff. I have to figure a way to deal with that but I do allow myself a handful of nuts or a few oatsquares.
