I have days like that too....usually just before i get my period. I am starving and want just about anything i shouldn't have...even in small doses it adds up. Now i just plan ahead...make sure i have healthier snacks on hand and plan the meals better.
Most of all...every moment is a new moment...every occurance soemthing to learn from.....
tomorrow is a new day...get back to grass roots and log for a few days to ensure your on track....you can do it...
there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with you.....except your human....lol
Luv ya lots girl....hang tight

I know
It's one day at a time and I will do better tomorrow.
I guess I just needed a hug : )

*hug* :) i have noticed latley catching myself in the kitchen looking through the cubbords thinking hmm im hungry then i stop and ask myself am i really hungry? or am i just bored? are i really hungry or do i just think i need to eat? usually by the time i think about it and see the situation im over it and just grab a bottle of water. this is something that truly suprises me bc before surgery i would have eaten anything i could get my hands on. so are you truly hungry or is it just your head thinking you are?

I have had many days like this lately! I have gained 36 pounds back and it has been 5 years since my surgery. I need help getting back on track and each day can be a struggle. I feel like your are human. I mean most of us have spent our entire existence thinking about food. It is a comfort when other part's of our lives a

sorry about that my computer just crashed right in the middle of my thought. As I was saying food comforts us when other parts of our lives are not working so well. I have been a single mother for 19 years and my life is spinning out of control. I need help also on how to get back on track. But we all know it boils down to exercising and keeping on our Gastric Bypass diet. But it sure is hard sometimes. Any ideas for me guys.!! Wishing everyone success!

Nothing is "wrong" with you. You are human being and a beautiful caring one at that. Dont be to hard on yourself today is a new day and we all get to "start over" Take a walk, get some air and reflect on how far you have come. and SMILE!

when i get into the check cubbert mode cause i think i hungry i take a piece of gum . then i'm good for a few hours.

I still can't imagine anyone being hungry.........I'm a bit over 8 months out and still have to force myself to eat.
Although I have noticed in the last month, I think with everything that had been going on, that I was looking for something to eat, quite abit more than I had before.
Of course for me it's been a good thing, because I hadn't been eating hardly anything, so it's helped me.
I just don't want to continue the pattern. It also helped to get my scale moving a bit more.

I'm with Kelly, I litterally have to remind myself to eat. I know some of you girls get pissy when I write that but for some reason food just doesn't feel he same to me anymore. I really don't feel sick when I eat but it's just not like when I was normal. LOL. (I'll give you that).

And then somedays I can eat all I want and more. Now on those days I never drink 1 calorie, ever. And of course protein first... But really, 1200 calories? The standard American diet is probably 3x's that. Hope my girl, you'll never ever get fat eating that! Enjoy life, and if you're going to drink fluids with calories, make sure they burn or are at least designed for adults ONLY!

Love Lucifer

Thanks for reminding me to love myself and that today is a new day and I have a shiny brand new chance to do things better than the day before.

I know that 1222 calories is not that bad however I am only 10 weeks out and I expect that this is as good as it will ever get for me.
Down the road I will likely need a little more to make me as satified so I am aiming for 1200 calories at maintanence (I am only 4'11")
Given my height and my age (51) I will not be able to take in 2000 calories a day to maintain 120 pounds.
I just wish I was one of those people who "forget to eat". Thats kind of the way I thought it was going to be.
You don't know how lucky you are.
Days like yesterday I feel like a failure all over again.
Thanks for reminding me... today is another day : )
