Cat - thanks for bringing this out in the open. NONE of us had surgery on our brains or emotions - we only had surgery on our digestive tracts. it takes A LONG time. some of it seems hardwired. I'm just coming out of about 18 months of stress eating - and am ashamed to say that I barely noticed that i was stressing so bad!!
over the past few weeks, though, my eating has calmed down [thank goodness!!!] and i'm getting full on very little. Of course, that's raising OTHER issues, especially that I'm not getting enough protein. I'm considering eating veggies/small amounts of fruit, and getting my protein in supplements. just until i stop tossing meat and chicken.
what do you all think about that? i'm really surprised that this is happening, but there it is!!!
and BROWN - please be sure to read Jennifer's thread
