Tired vent...
It's been a very emotionally draining time this past two weeks.... my mom suffered minor strokes - in and out of ER - my dad asked me to help plan their funerals... that was hard... looking at a major job change - leaving a company of 27 years and moving across the country... blah, blah, blah... my sister calls it "life."
Trying to stay motivated and energized, but quite frankly, VSG weight loss is SO on the back burner right now. Last night I had 3, yes 3, Weigh****chers ice cream bars... yes, I was sick...
Just needed to get it off my chest. Lots of changes and just tired.

Sorry you are facing this, aging and parents health issues weigh heavy on me too.. it stinks.
Sounds like you need a really long hug and some down time/me time. Try to take some time out of "life" as your sister calls it, and do something soothing for you. Eating, though it feels good in the moment always leaves me feeling worse later- then I have the original issue, plus the one I just added to the mix to gripe internally about. It only compounds the problems..
Wishing you some strength for getting through the changes happening.

Good for you for realizing whats driving you to the kitchen! Thats always the hardest part isn't it.
My parents are also getting up there and we have had the "final arrangements" discussion. I think I'd rather talk to them about their sex life than their funerals and wills. The sex life may have a major ewwwww factor, but it doesn't break my heart to think about.
Changing jobs and moving are two of the top 3 stressors in adult life. You sure have your plate full.
One of the things that helps me avoid the kitchen when I ma like this is alone time with soft jazz playing on my headset and a walk. If I am about ready to rip someones throat out with my teeth (nice visual, eh?) it may be rock and a run.
You don't want to know what kind of stress makes me play "La Vie En Rose", LOL.
