Guest guest Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 Kristy, Have you consider discussing this with your counselor? I know it is hard. It is the hardest thing in the world for me to discuss gaining weight, body image, poor eating choices, etc. I am seriously considering going back to a therapist for a while. I won't those wonderful food demons to go away and they just keep creeping back. Don't loose hope. We have all been in the same boat at some point in our journey.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 <If this helps too I forgot to mention that I had a proximal RNY almost 4 years ago and if my tool worked the way it was supposed to I would've never gained the 50lbs. I probally would still be starving myself but I got tired of how I felt when I was doing that. Some of it was self imposed the rest was due to obstructions I had. The minute I found out that eating more was ok and made me feel better well I was at a happy medium for a short time but then I noticed I could eat more and more which I find out now is due to the fistula. What I don't understand is I could still be starving myself and never gained the weight because of the fistula causing so much pain and agony if I would stick to eating solid protein which I wish I would've. I wouldn't have this problem either if my surgeon wouldn't have told me I would gain weight regardless in hopes that I would get it fixed soon. I know I took this the wrong way going to gain weight might as well eat what I want. What I didn't realize is if I would eat the healthier foods then the weight gain wouldn't be so bad or if I would've exercise more. I could beat myself up for this for days but now for some reason I don't even care oh well damage done will be getting it fixed soon. Weight I gained will be gone soon too! SO What?
