MY STALL
Hi Lisa,
I know exactly what you are going through and agree that some of the old habits want to creep back in. I've had similar issues, and changed a few things, which has helped. I'm far from perfect and don't lose like I'd like to, but I've held my own for 3-1/2 years. I told you that your doc, who also assisted my doc in my RNY surgery, told me the same things he's telling you. I didn't agree with all of them, but must admit that I do like what he told you about going back to liquids. I may try that myself.
Most evenings I am going to bed early so that I don't snack at night. I find that when I stay up late, I go after anything I can find.
Another thing that I do is put everything I don't want to eat (but keep for company) in the freezer. I have trained myself that once it hits the freezer, it is out-of-bounds. It works for me.
I was getting very hungry and started to eat shelled sunflower seeds. It's a lot of work to unshell them, it keeps me busy, and they are protein. Also, I find that I don't eat a lot of them.
I hope this all helps. I'll see you in shul on Saturday. I look forward to it.
Linda
