Oh No! It hit me!!!!!

Hi, My name is Kelley and I have Last meal syndrome. I'm not happy about this...I don't know if its pms thats making the situtaion worse, BUT IT NEEDS TO STOP!!!!! I don't wanna gain the weight back that I have just lost... Any suggestions? Kelley 24 days and a wake up and SUFFERING FROM LMS !

Hi Kelley! It's both! PMS and last meal syndrome. Get your hormones under control and you will do fine - chin up, you calm down and do great Good luck on your surgery! Tina McNeil (3/17/04 surgery date)

Kelley, I don't have any good suggestions, but how about a BIG hug for encouragement !!! Hugs, Mo (and the dancin' feet )

Awww, that will work even better! Tanks so much! Kelley

I just decided not to do this BUT I refused to eat any garbage dinners.. Such as fast food or frozen dinners... I ate only things I liked for dinner and even planned a few special meals that I don't normally take the time to prepare... this way I didn't feel all panicky and like I had to eat everything in sight... Keep your eye on the prize.. you're almost there..... When I have PMS I crave nothing but carbs.. so I know your pain ... Hang in there this to shall pass.....

Hey Kelley, The only advice I have is to get moving whenever a craving hits or you just feel like eating even though it's just head hunger get out of the house and take a walk That helps sometimes due to endorphins and such. Good Luck!!! Whitney

I have really bad last meal syndrome and quitting smoking syndrome at the same time. I swear Im trying to eat everything ever made!!! Ive gained 2 pounds since I came back from all the pre-op testing and the doc told me I have the 2 weeks before surgery to quit smoking or he would cancel my surgery!! God help me! LOL' ~Nicole

Nicole - If you drink coffee, I have an odd trick that helped me quit smoking that might help you. I chewed on coffee beans. It really helped give me a strong flavor in my mouth that mimicked the feeling I had while smoking. As for losing weight at the same time - that's rough. Low carb helped me but I didn't start doing that until after I was quit for a few months. Dina
