Question:
I've had these problems in the past...inconsistent and poor...

eating habits which contributed immensely toward my becoming morbidly obese. Now, that I'm "relatively thin", more thin now than I've EVER been, I can't seem to remember to eat FOOD!! Isn't that the strangest thing? Does anyone else have this challenge? Okay, drinking the water, waiting until 10-15 minutes to pass before indulging after the subliminal suggestions of "the beast"~that FOOD DEMON, it's supposed to go away, you say? Well, the opposite is true in my case. I WANT to EAT, and either I'm so busy at work, and too tired once I get home, that eating is the farthest thing from my mind. If I try and force myself to eat, I get nauseated. I KNOW I have to eat to live and stay healthy, but I guess I'll have to walk around with an alarm clock around my neck...one that rings REAL LOUD like Big Ben. Having completed my treatments for the recently diagnosed 'illness', I had to go back to the itty-bitty baby meals. I wanna EAT!! Anyone else experiencing this strange phenomenom(sp)? Your guidance is cerrtainly appreciated. Proximal LAP RNY, 9/3/02 265/142/115-126, 5'2" Hadiyah McCutcheon, a.k.a.~~    — yourdivaness (posted on January 8, 2004)

I have the worst problem with that! Sometimes I will go for 2 or 3 days & not eat a thing. But then I remember I am SUPPOSED to eat because I start feeling shaky & dizzy because my blood sugar gets too low. The only time I have actually felt hungery at all since having surgery was while I was pregnant. Then I wanted to eat all the time.

I forget to eat or become so busy I don't have time - as I always hated eating out. I can assure you that IT IS VERY BAD - I try to remember to bring at least a few pieces of fruit or some yogurt.
