Do you mean you undereat protein and overeat simple carbs? Lots of us did that. I mostly ate anything that wasn't nailed down.

I fight badgers with spoons.

In the am I take my vitamins and have an unswettened applesauce, later I may have some chicken salad with wheat ritz crackers and later some grapes or strawberries with sugar free whip cream. I guess I'mnot getting enough protein.Thank you! I have my consult with my surgeon today for WLS! Feeling excited!!

I find that carrying a claw hammer around to pry up the nailed stuff can be helpful.

For general info/feedback, I recommend the book "weight loss surgery for dummies," it's an incredibly helpful introduction.

Under eat?  What's that?  

Seriously, we don't become morbidly obese because we under eat.  Have you ever tracked how many calories you eat in a day using an app like MyFitnessPal?  I think you might be surprised how much you're taking in.

Being honest with your bad eating behaviors is an important step in dealing with obesity.  Have you seen a therapist or attend support group meetings?
