self destructive eating - need help!
i'm going on 7 weeks postop and the last couple of days i feel like i'm hungry a lot and thinking about food all of the time. today i was travelling home from a business trip and ate the small bag of pretzels on the plane, had lunch(cold cuts on a slice of light wheat bread) when i got home, grabbed a few crackers right after lunch, then a few more. about an hour later i had a sugar free popsicle,then a little later, had a graham cracker. for dinner i had almost a whole piece of pizza (in the past, i've not had more than half a slice), and i felt like i was deliberately trying to overeat. this behavior scares me - it feels a lot like my pre op eating. i so do not want to go back to my old ways. i'd appreciate any feedback, especially suggestions for how to avoid acting out on these impulses. thanks!
