VSG is just a tool!!!

Wow, I really got smacked in the face how true this is this week. I am having a very emotional week. One of our grown children is causing a lot of stress and it was the first anniversary of my sister's death. So I feel back into old habits. I feed my grief. Thank goodness for this tool that I was not able to feed it as badly as before. I thing the quick feeling of being full and the slightly sick feeling I had afterwards helped me to realize this could not be my stress reliever anymore.

SO, today, I am back to eating as I should. Lots of protein, drink my water, and WALK.

Got to remember - I didn't get this way in a day and I won't fix it in a day!

You are so right! I have found out so much about myself since surgery. I'm glad you realized and snapped out of it! Good job!

same here and it's a GREAT TOOL.  the only thing i find is i cannot handle some of the stuff hubby likes to snack on being in the house when i'm under pressure, so sweet-man-that-he-is doesn't purchase that garbage anymore.  

Sorry to hear that you are having a tough week and so sorry for the loss of your sister.  I too am an emotional eater.  So happy you have the vsg and were able to realize it's capabilities.  Awesome job getting back on track.
