Figuring out hunger

Thanks for posting this Deb....this is a journey of constant self awareness...

I discovered hunger with a vengence these past 2 weeks from antibiotics that set off GERD that set off hunger. Once I realized the chain of events it made it easier to pull the reins in, but for a couple of days I was a wandering bottomless pit.

I am extremely grateful not to have had GERD. It's also seems rampant sometimes.

Deb thanks for posting this. I know I have to watch not eating for long periods of time. I have almost passed out a few times. 

I myself can not have crap in the house. I am such an addict I threw away my toaster. I only eat toast out at like a diner that has really good bread.

I have been eating Quest bars. Usually on my way to work. If I am in a rush. 

I always make sure I drink before I eat. One of the vets said maybe it is thirst and not actual hunger. I do suffer from head hunger. I can get in a mood were I could house a ton of food. I really have to pull my head out of my ass on those days.

I try to make sure that I am not eating to fix something else in my life. 

When I started out before thinking about WLS I remember my nurse telling me to write down why I was eating. it made me really look at why.
