I have been struggling for about a month now. I have been eating fatty foods and a lot os sweets. I have been under a lot of pressure and have had a hard time coping. And for the first time I am having a LOT of head hunger. I'm eating chips, cookies, nachos, cookies, icecream, cookies, cakes, cookies and cookies too. And I've been PBing a lot more than ususal. I feel sick tonight from all the sugar I have eaten. And I feel guilty. I have only been able to work out once this week and now I have gained 2 pounds. I'm not doing well. I think I need another fill, but I do'nt have the $$ right now. Pray that God will give me strength to overcome my head hunger. Tomorrow is always a new day, right?? :hurt :pout: :noidea:

I pray you will receive the strength you need to change your behavior, to confront your fears and to overcome your old habits.....I hope we all become as strong and as aware as we need to be to survive the perils of this world...especially those self inflicted....

I pray you learn 'head hunger' is fueled by sugars and fats and carbs and you will learn what action produces what results...I pray you gain the wisdom to change those behaviors that are controlling your spirit and distorting your life....

I pray you find another way to manage your pressures and stress than by eating your way thru those moments....

I pray you find the way to step out of the darkness and into the light....

:hugs:
I know exactly what youre going thru. been there done that too mnay times, since being banded not so much, but b4 all the time. I wasnt eating the best during the 3 or 4 months after surgery. thinking I was eating less so I could get away with eating anything. NOT TRUE!!
I gain 6 pounds and woke up fast..... Im nearly 9 months out and down 40 pounds..... I wanted desperately to loose 50 pounds by my 50th bday...... well that was april 24th..... I didnt make it and have no one to blame but M E !!

the best I can tell you is dont buy the bad foods.... dont give yourself the temptation. when you "think" youre hungry, take a glass of water and leave the kitchen, sit down make yourself sip it untill gone and by then, I bet the thought of having to eat will begone or lessen alot. just tell yourself each timne. " IM NOT HUNGRY " and keep repeating it to yourself.it does help.
good luck to you and drink that water!!!

I'm joining Jack in this same prayer, for you , for me, and for everyone here on LBT.

What a blessing it would be to have that prayer answered in each of us.

Thanks so much. I've been a good girl today. I also think I need a fill.
