Truely amazed...

I've had a pretty stressful couple of days, and I mean serious, very upsetting stuff.

The reason I say this is that it occurred to be today that I hadn't been eating very much this week - virtually nothing in fact. Which isn't good i realise, so I'll be sorting that out.

But, what is amazing is that prior to being sleeved I was definitely a stress eater. If i was upset and stressed, even just a little, I turned to food to feel better.

This week I have had the opposite reaction. Stress makes me not able to face eating at all!

That's just amazing to me.

I think one factor in that is that eating is no longer enjoyable. It's just eating. In fact it's a bit of a chore really. Plus the whole dumping with sugar thing is good aversion therapy!

I am so happy i could cry lol !

Wow you're a dumper? Did you have a bypass in the end? Or a lucky sleever?

Its great to finally be in control of your eating isnt it x

I had a sleeve but seem to dump on sugar. xo

Excellent! Mind you, i have dumped twice, but its certainly not a regular thing. x

Fab! I hope to be the same (re the stress eating, not the dumping). lol
