What the heck is happening to me! This is the first time PO that I have been eating non-stop, due to PMS!

I thought that cycle was finally beaten!

I am eating anything that comes into view, healthy or unhealthy. Normally I can up my Water and enjoy some extra dark chocolate and I get through.

I am terrified that I will have gained weight once this period is over!!! Help me! ( Laughing but serious,)

For the record, I have been excessively trying to keep good Snacks and food prep for work, per the usual. I am eating all the good food and extra.

Eat a pickle but don't overdo it or you will retain water

surgery doesn't solve that. At first it takes your hunger away (at least for most of us) for a few months. It can also reset your metabolism. And also, for the first few weeks or months, it makes it tough if not impossible to eat more than a few tablespoons. But at some point, you can easily return to the bad habits you had before surgery and gain much - if not all - of your weight back. You have to be diligent for the rest of your life if you want to keep the weight off. My weight quickly heads north if I stop paying attention. At 4.5 years out, I still weigh myself daily, watch my calories, and weigh/measure most things and log everything that goes into my mouth. I've accepted the fact that I have to do that for the rest of my life.

Sugar Free Chocolate pudding. That's what helped me and I didn't gain anything.

      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!!
