I BINGED

At least I think I did, I was out at the lake and had just 2 or 3 cheese puffs, and then a hot dog with out the bun, and then not even a hour later I had 2 ritz crackers with peanut butter and I was thirsty so what do I do??!!!! I grab a strawberry soda and guzzle it!
I have never did that before, I always wait 30 min but not yesterday!, I even gained a pound, Do you think doing that caused my sleeve to stretch??

It's gonna take a lot more than that to stretch your sleeve.  I wouldn't recommend doing that all the time, but I'm sure we all do this from time to time.  I know I have and my restriction is still the same as 9 months post op.  Just be careful not to make it a habit!

Thanks for answering, that makes me feel better. l just remember eating fast and drinking right after, and its been 10 months since I have done that and it really freaked me out that I would do that again. Crazy!!!

I doubt it. Everybody has had a day like you did where the went "off plan" a little. That pound is probably from salt and fluid. Bet it goes away when you get back on board. I swear, stuff like cheese puffs must weigh about two pounds each!!!!  Diane

 I think it's important to remember that the further out you are, the more you "can" do things more like a non-op again.

you have to be ready for that eventually so this is good practice - hopefully after the freak out you return to the issues with a sense of confidence in your abiltity to handle them.

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.
