 |  Your thoughts on why we forget to eat.
Like I have posted in the thread(what did you eat today) I totolly forgot to eat this morning becasue I was so busy spring cleaning the living room, When I looked at the clock it was 10:30. I was wondering what your thoughts are why we forget to eat now after the surgery. But before surgery there is no way that I would forget to eat. I swear I had a time clock in my head before surgery to eat. I am back to likeing the taste of foods again but it is not the first thing on my mind like before. It is like I eat to survive now and it just is not so important anymore FOOD!!!!!! I get so involved in what I do now and do not think of food and time to eat. My husband has reminded me many times that it is close to dinner or supper. How he goes about it is what are we having for dinner or supper. Then it reminds me, oh that is right I got to make the meal soon. I plan out my meals most of the time for all day so I do not have to think of what to make. I do not like to make last minute meals, I do very few of them and usually when something comes up and I am not prepared for it. I sure would love your thoughts on this subject and I have seen some posts that some do forget to eat. It is such a change for me that I would forget to eat, it is just not me , but that is a good thing, and that shows that I am not thinking of food all the time like before.

well for me 1) im not hungry, 2) food just isnt appealing to me anymore. before i would wake up thinking about what i would eat for breakfast or dinner or whatever. i was obsessed. now, food doesnt do it for me anymore. i suppose thats why unless i plan my meals i dont eat at all.....i dunno. id be curious to see what everyone else says. maybe i'm just wierd.

I have to agree...you give me something to do and food is the farthest from my mind. Strange since it used to be all that it was about!

I think that maybe we feel ssooo much better that we can get so carried away with our tasks and not "need a break" that time is getting by us. Not a bad thing, although we are supposed to eat reg. Kathy

I find that I rarely ever feel truly hungry. I also find that I have so much energy now, that I get started doing something and one thing leads to another and I have gone hours without eating. Also, I carry tea around with me all the time and I am constantly sipping, so pouchy maybe is just happy with that??? This made me think of something I did a couple of months ago, I went to visit a friend that I had not seen in quite sometime, her hubby called me out of the blue and asked me to come see her, she was depressed. I went there at 8:30 in the morning, and we went in the spare bedroom and started talking, we lost track of time, her hubby came in and asked what he should make for dinner, IT WAS 7:30 AT NITE!! I had gone the entire day on a protein bar I had on the way over there. NO HUNGER PAINS at all!! I dont think I have ever felt a hunger pain since WLS!!!!????

I do this to Kitty. Mabye they took the alarm clock out? LOL I used to think about it all the time to. I have noticed If I will go ahead and eat my breakfast I do good the rest of the day. If I dont and forget to my day is bad with bad choices.

for me it is i am not hungry so i think why eat when you are not hungry, which i know is bad cuz then i go too long without eating then i get really hungry!! or i am so busy with something i forget...which i have been using to my advantage lately, i will get myself really busy with something when i feel the head hunger comming on
