Guest guest Posted June 7, 2000 Report Share Posted June 7, 2000 Hi all, Things are going well since my surgery on 4/25/00. I’ve lost 35#, and am teetering on the edge of 200/199! My clothes are starting to get too baggy, and I actually bought a plain old XL skirt at JJill It doesn’t even have an elastic waist. As for foods, I find that I tolerate EVERYTHING! I’m trying to enjoy what I eat, and eat mostly protein. I’m also finding, at 6 weeks out, that I can eat more than I thought I should be able to. Maybe it’s just in my head, but last night I ate 2/3 of a piece of a large cheese pizza, and got all anxious. I had 1/2 an english muffin with lite cream cheese for breakfast, and worried that I shouldn’t be able to eat that much. At 3 weeks out, my capacity increased, and now at 6 weeks, it seems to be doing it again. Is this normal? Will it keep happening? Today I had 3 potato chips at lunch, and immediately started to feel bad about myself. I HATE that! I really don’t think 3 chips is a crime. Yes, it’s unfortunate that it DOES agree with me, but I’m not eating more than that, so everything should be fine. I guess I have a fear that 3 chips will lead to a whole bag. I guess I’m just “head hungry” today, and that can be a little depressing. I just really want to enjoy an occassional treat without beating myself up about it. Does anyone else go through this? And how do you let go of the bad feelings you get when you eat non-diet food? - Alice A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
