Hey Belinda. Sorry you feel this way too, but you're right that it helps knowing I'm not alone. I don't think there's any drug to make it go away. If there was, I wouldn't have needed the surgery. I saw my aunt and uncle today (both about 3 years post RNY.) They said not to stress about stalling, that it happens, and the loss will start again. I think I need to keep it in perspective. Now I get mad if I "binge" on 2 or 3 chips. A couple of months ago I would have eaten a whole bag. It just makes me mad that I can't seem to walk by a bag without wanting one. For awhile, I knew even just a couple would make me sick, so I stayed away. Now that I've learned that I can eat a few...it's dangerous. Hang in there. We'll get through it. Jeannie

I guess I'd like the opportunity to at least know what it would feel like to weight too little or have that problem at least for a day. I've stalled out right now. But I'm sure I'll be losing again shortly... cause I know I'm true to myself.

HELP!!! I'm not hungry...I just seem to want to eat all the time. (Ok...not like I did before WLS), but if the boys have a bag of chips out, I want some. A couple of months ago I could turn my head. I've been under a LOT of stress lately...husband sick, new job, car accident, fighting insurance over the car accident. That may be it, but I don't know how to turn it off. I know I can't eat all the time. When I do "cave" I only have a couple of bites of whatever it is, but I know I shouldn't be having any. I can eat more things now and sometimes I can eat more of the things that I can eat. I don't think it's a good thing. How do you control it? I have a post-op visit Monday and I'm looking forward to seeing the therapist. Anyone else having this issue? How do you help it? Exercising when I want to eat doesn't do anything for me...just makes me think about what I can eat when I'm done. HELP!! I still need to lose about 30 lbs. My aunt who is about 3 years post-op just started putting weight on and I'm scared. I don't want to come this far and then gain it all back. Unfortunately, the way I'm wired is it just adds to the stress I already feel and want to eat even more. Ok...I'm done whining. I'll listen now. THanks for your help! Jeannie

I'm right there with you! I've lost about the same, and haven't lost a pound in a couple of weeks, in fact some days I'm up a couple of pounds. It scares me to death. It shouldn't Even if I stayed where I am now I should be ok with it, but I'm not. I'm having other issues for another thread, but I completely empathize. You'll be loosing again soon, I'm sure. You're doing great.

love the new pic Bekah!
