Guest guest Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 Hello everyone... I am just writing to see if any of you felt as though you are trying to sagotage yourselves. Although I cannot eat a lot, and tend to eat good foods, I still feel as though I am trying to keep myself from succeeding in my weight loss. Is this normal? Anyone out there going through or have gone through the same thing? from Indiana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 , I've felt that way on and off since the begging. I feel like I am really pushing this little tummy as far as it can go. Its not like I don't want this to work, because I sure as hell do. Its just that I still have this crazy food addiction that doesn't let go although it doesn't take the same course as before. I guess we just have to keep powering through taking each day as it comes. in DC >From: StagePhntm@... >Reply- > >Subject: Sabotage!! >Date: Thu, 31 May 2001 00:15:53 EDT > >Hello everyone... > > I am just writing to see if any of you felt as though you are >trying >to sagotage yourselves.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 I'm right there with you but my therapist says that its to be expected. After all, the good ole Doc didn't take out my brain (although maybe he should have!). I'm still a food addict. My body just won't let me do it anymore. Thank God! in Atlanta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 All I know is I still have the same food addiction as before the surgery. Re: Sabotage!! Thank you , I have felt the same way.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 I feel the same way. I worry about stretching out my new little tummy to much and worry when it seems I can eat too much. Looks like to me, it can only stretch so far, isn't that the reason for it being long instead of more round? It can't stretch as far that way? Anyone know. I know it's got to stretch some, but can it stretch too much? Is that even possible? in OK ________________________________________________ , I've felt that way on and off since the begging.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 , , Hmmm... I've always felt like throwing up if I got too full. I just HATE to dump. I am sure my tummy is bigger because sometimes I can eat a whole sandwich! What do you think? aW MGB 5/28/00 214/118 Re: Sabotage!! I feel the same way.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 Thought I would tell you that I do that sometimes too, but not to often, and seems that if I eat something like that whole sandwich I end up in the potty not long after. Gotta go somewhere, a letter this week about drinking soda. I believe I heard that the carbon stretches the tummy oh and causes gas, real bad. maybe that is why I don't drink that anymore. I love reading letter from all you MGB'ers Most Gorgeous Butterflies. everyone keep up the good work ^5 to all.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2001 Report Share Posted June 1, 2001 Hi Gang I too find that I can eat more than I think I should. Not that I try to, just some things agree we me and I find I overdo it and: lo & behold, I've eaten too much. Of course if I go way over the limit I feel full and Yucky, and stop short. But yes, I think my stomach has stretched more than it should have or more than I expected. Now it's possible that's the case when they were stretching the connection to the intestine it stretched too far or even when the did the surgery to put my tummy back together again (perferation emergency surgerical repair ( ref my post of early May) they left it too big or the connection too big so that more food gets packed in, before the 'fullness' signal is generated. Any comments ?? TommyB from Woodstock, NY Re: Sabotage!! > I feel the same way. I worry about stretching out my new little tummy to much and worry when it seems I can eat too much.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2001 Report Share Posted June 1, 2001 Hi Sharon, It's strange.... talking about soda. I took a couple sips of my husband's soda last night and it was so bubbly I could barely swallow it and yes I don't like how it feels either. Isn't that great??? *grin* aW MGB 5/28/00 214/118 Re: Sabotage!!

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2001 Report Share Posted June 1, 2001 a you are a newbie I see? Yes, you will try things that seem okay before you swallow, then it is to late, lol you have to tough it out from there. This is kinda hard to compare foods that one person may digest okay and other foods that don't bother others at all. You have to find that out for yourself. Stay away form that bad stuff and you'll be okay. no more soda girl. yuk I remember that feeling.lol Sharon Lee Carlisle/Mistklady Ü Post-op August 11, 2000 post 343- present 195- 1st goal 160 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
