Glad to be a Loser!
I have been pondering how the DS is so successful and applying those thoughts to how it has been working for me over the past few weeks.
Pre-Op I was one of those people that just enjoyed eating and the warm and fuzzy feeling you get when your belly is full after a reasonable meal. Whatever gets released then must have been strong and addictive for me because it took me to 325lbs.
One thing I have noticed post-op is that even when I am full, I don't get that rush of warm and fuzzy feeling anymore. In most cases, it is an opposite type of thing where I don't feel good at all about being full. It has taken some time to get used to this and break the addiction to wanting that warm and fuzzy feeling that is not coming when I stuff my gut.
Stuff I used to love now gives little pleasure and just seems oh so not worth it!
Maybe this is one reason why the DS works so well?
Food is slowly losing its grip on me. Each day I am closer to the "Eat to Live" vs "Live to Eat" phrase!
