Overeating and starting to gain 2.75 yrs post op.

Be careful you don't trip on your hubris!  

Remember, it's easy to put "enough time and research" in when you are a young newly-wed -- 

Add a couple of kids to that, and it's amazing how much less time is available.   

Is hubris that green mushy stuff you put on crackers? I hate that stuff.

I think you're thinking of humus -- but if it's green that's certainly why you hate it.

I do like green M&Ms.

There is not exciting or new in this post op way of eating. It's not a diet, it's our LIFE. Protein first and portion control and exercise is the key to my success 

Are you going to your Support Group Meetings - that might help.  You are at the 2.75 yr post-WLS.  That is a challenging period for many people.  Grim is right.  Do not give up now, pull out all the stops to put the Kibosh on this at 15 pounds.

Good luck. 

PS - i learned how to spell Kibosh!!!

I am sure everyone has told you is get rid of any carbs in your life. I had my surgery in October of 2013. I still deal with major head hunger. I do feel restriction. Thank goodness.

Maybe you can look to see what is happening when the hunger strikes. I know I have major triggers for me. I can'****ch the cooking channel even if I am not hungry I would be able to eat. 

Clean your cabinets out. Maybe seek therapy. Here is a good place to come for help. Talking about this with others can help. 

Best wishes to you.

You need a nutritional work up.  

  I would  Boost protein in the morning and at noon. Sounds like B 's are low...and I would also add a small amount 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil to one meal a day , morning or noon...to nourish the brain and heart. Coconut oil is the only fat that has 4 chains of fat and cross the blood-brain barrier. This IS something CARDio ologists are recommending now as well.            

Let's be friends because your question last month is WHY I am here.
