re: back after a long absennse

[Guest guest]

I live in Chicago, IL.

I am having a hard time with food craving and lots of emotional wants

for food. I am tring all my tricks but it scares me when this

happens. The " support group " here for people who have had the surgery

is a joke and that is rough. I just feel really alone with it all. I

often have felt scared to post in the past about my struggles with

feas I will hear that I am bad for struggling.

I am not sure w here else to turn. It is really rough. I read

someones post about only eating 2 oz a day at on year post op and I

eat more than that at a meal. I worry that I am eating to much. My

body used to tell me quickly if it had had enough,a nd now it is slow

with that so sometimes I eat more then feel sick. It is hard to gauge

what is the " right " amount to take in.

Thanks for letting me rant

not to worry, natasha. the definition of being human (imo), is:

the struggle. no so need to beat yourself up; listen to your

intuition.

is there a nutritionist you can consult? sometimes ins will cover if

you argue it's medically necessary.

do you ever keep a fitday. com journal? just some ideas...
