PULL MY HEAD OUT OF MY A**

OK so I have not been doing so well still.  I am going to attend my first support group in years (tonight).  I have also scheduled an appointment with the Dr's office and the diettican for April 30th so I can get my dumba** in gear.  I have been so stupid lately eating all the wrong things and am just confused on how to get myself back on track and where to start.  I thought by doing these that it would be a great start for me.  I am starting to document and measure what I am eating in hopes that by the time I go to Dr and dietician i might be down a couple of pounds.  HOW COULD I DO THIS TO MYSELF AGAIN!  DUH!

Your human.  Give yourself a break. You know what you are doing now and working to change it.

thanks I'm trying but I told myself I would never be over a certain weight again and well totally mis-used my tool.  I guess I did that because i hadn't gained weight in so long just in my mind and process thought I could eat what and when and how much i wanted since i hadn't gained any back in the 4 1/2 yrs that i was out.  I am out 5 yrs now and its going back on.  UGH!

Hi,

You are taking the right steps.  As I have always said, wls does not cure the real issues to our obesity. That is in the gray matter between the ears.  Developing a healthy relationship with food and to know what those pesky triggers are will help as well.  You may want to consider seeing a Life Coach who has experience working with people with eating addictions/disorders.  Don't be too hard on yourself. There is so much support out there to be taken. You can do it!

Thanks for the idea.  Might have to check into that if I can't get this under control.  So far so good today.  Have a great day :)
