New YouTube Video - Shame & Guilt

Hi friends,

I've been adding new videos about my weight loss journey pretty reliably two or three times a week. This week I posted my 7-week update and talked a little bit about Guilt and Shame before and after weight loss surgery. This is somewhat about what I've been through, but I think many people who have fought obesity go through similar things. I think it important for people to know that weight loss surgery is not a cure for food addiction, emotional eating, depression, and such, no matter how successful we are during our journey. It can certainly help get with good feelings around success, but those negative emotions, addictions, and other feelings can come back even stronger.

If you haven't had your surgery yet, I'd take a deep self-reflection on contributing factors to your obesity and get some help addressing those issues before and continuing after surgery. It's been valuable for me to reflect and get support for these sorts of things. I think it's an important part of building a new relationship with food and myself.

Also, I recently reviewed some non-wheat pasta, and two of them had some really high protein and low carb counts, and they were all pretty tasty.

Here's a link to that one:
