Frustrated and Rooster pecked!!!!!!!!!!
Hi, I am almost 4 years out with a Lap Band. Have lost 100 lbs, then had knee replaced, gained 40 back. Haven't been able to get the 40 off. I also have allergies (hay fever type) and asthma. Have a lot of mucus that forms and will throw that up. Husband nags when he thinks I am not eating "right". And doesn't want me to go to a therapist. We would have to drive 30-60 miles for that. So I get frustrated and revenge eat. What ever I know isn't good for me and that he wouldn't approve of. HELP! Please! Thanks, Marilyn Prime:-(
Hi Marilyn. I had Lap Band done in Aug. I am happy to hear that you lost 100 pounds. I am looking forward to that day.
I know how frustrating this whole thing can be. My husband is pretty supportive but I sabotabge myself in this process. During the Holidays I have eaten entirely too much and gained some weight. But today is a new day and I am starting over. Don't let yourself go all the way back to old ways and old days. You have done a great job and it's just a matter of getting back to what works. Do you still have restriction in your band? Maybe a trip to your surgeon is in order.
Do what you need to do to take care of yourself. I have found that support is the most important thing for me. When I isolate and don't talk to people food becomes my best friend and worst enemy.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Good luck.
