BDME: Out of all the mean comments I've seen on this website, this might be the worst. Stop being such a b***h.

unfortunately that was the first thing I lost and then my boobage

@Dairymary I'm so sorry you went through all that! @Hoping052017 how many carbs were recommended?

following this discussion

I graze junk food too at times. Self-defeating behavior. sigh.

I've heard nothing but bad things about the band

meant to ask how many carbs a day you guys consume now? Thanks.

I've only lost 38 pounds. My own fault. Didn't do what I was suppose to do. Became a carb junkie again. Was consuming 2000+ calories a day at times. This week I have been trying to get back to doing the right thing. Not doing so bad. 9 weeks until my 1 year surgiversary so I want to lose more by then obviously.

Thank you, Sajijoma. Day two of reset. Yesterday sucked but I was 99% successful. At bed time I was starving and couldn't sleep so I had a few bites of shredded cheese and that did the trick. I think I get confused about when to drink Water. So I have some Protein shake and wait 30 minutes before I drink anything? but then don't drink 30 mins before "eating" again?

no what is it?

I had no change either way. Still a problem. Actually I went to the derm yesterday and he prescribed antibiotic, cream, gel, and a washing regimen. Said no peanuts, shellfish, caffeine, butter, or high fat dairy.

I developed a preoccupation with food early on. Enough was never enough. There were times I would eat from sun up to sun down and throw up at the end of the day because my stomach couldn't take it any more.

So I started the 5 day reset today. Having atkins shakes which I think are okay content wise. Thank you everyone for all of your input.

Thank you all for commenting and giving me suggestions and encouragement. I think I will look into finding a therapist. I guess I wasn't really ready but tried to convince myself that I was and that everything would work out.

"You need to stop your self imposed pity party and take control of this situation...starting right this minute." yes, you are absolutely right. as for the "yucky" food comment...I just mean meals just seem so heavy and nauseating. And forget about Protein shakes. Right from jump those things grossed me out.
