My Fear

Thanks for all the feedback

I have signed up for the craving change program and it might take a year to get in so meanwhile I will try to do some reading.

I find it very hard to identify my feelings around food. I over eat when I am happy and when I'm sad, stressed ect

I think it is good to have a little bit of fear regain. Having WLS is a big life change. I am only two years out and daily I am learning.

I am addicted to food. There are somethings that can trigger me to eat regardless if I am hungry. Luckily I do attend therapy at least two times a month. I come here daily to.

Please don't feel shame about being obese. It does not help. It makes things worse. I still have shame sometimes for letting myself get to the point of needing WLS. I try not to forget but not dwell on it.

I hope you can find the guidance to help you move forward taking care of yourself.

Coming here and reading and posting questions is a great place for support. Some people who are vets who have been 5 or more years out and have kept the weight off really can help you.
