So today I am on my way home for lunch trying to decide do I want a salad that I am so craving or do I want to go home and eat the pork chop left over from last night well I pick the pork chop and as I said I was hungry and I guess I didn't eat slowly and I got that feeling in my chest and then I found myself angry saying to myself I am going to PB every time if I don't learn to eat slowly!!!! So then I found myself cutting the pork chop into tiny pieces recalling a post I saw here that you have to eat bites of a pea size and I was able to finish the pork chop well almost becasue I ate a few bites of homeade mac n cheese I know not the best of choices but I did eat the meat first and it all went down and stayed and I feel content in my tummy. Just wanted to share if you can just eat it slowly and not think of how hungry you are vs not wanting to PB it will work!

Way to go...big high 5 your way :thumbup:. We all forget to eat slowly and chew every once in a while. I think you made the right choice with the pork chop instead of the salad though. Keep up the good work!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
