What should I be eating at 18mos post op? How much? I'M SCARED!!

I worry about how much and what I eat constantly!I obsess about food and appearance. It is always on my mind. I also beat myself up continually.... Do I eat enough? (thats a rare question these days), Did I eat too much? Was this too fattening? Did I gain weight? Do I look fat? Am I too thin? Am I gonna gain the weight back? Did I disrupt my staple line? Did I stretch my pouch? All of these questions haunt me on an hourly basis. I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PUTTING TOO MUCH FOOD ON my PLATE AND TRYing to EAt IT. My EYES ARE STILL BIGGER THAN my STOMACH. I also worry a lot about regaining the weight. My capacity has really increased and I find myself obsessing about everything I eat. Did I get enough protein? Did I do too much sugar today? Why am I so hungry? My problem is , I can eat sweets and I can eat alot more. I want to lose 30 more lbs. I have gained 10 lbs and am scared to death that I will gain back all I have lost! (110 lbs) Thanks in advance! Sue
