[quote=Anonymous]I had an orthopedic surgery six months ago, not too long after we did a big intervention with my DH about his drinking.  After the surgery I didn't want to eat or drink, couldn't sleep, and ended up in the ER with severe dehydration.  The p doc put me on a something to help me sleep, then later on an anti-depressant, and now has increased the dose recently for both when I felt myself sliding further itno the depression.  But the short answer is my eating has been screwy ever since the surgery.  DH had been on me and on me and on me about my weight and getting into shape (this isn't new; he's done it for years especially whenever he wanted to lose wieght), and he didn't stop until his mother freaked out about my weight loss and told him to shut up.  But that was three months ago.  He hasn't said much about my weight since.

I was eating too much before my surgery because I didn't care anymore since I knew I couldn't exercise until after the surgery.  I weighed the most I have ever weighed not pregnant and probably had a BMI of 23-24 (I weighed about 136, which crept on over several months in the summer, but I was down under 130 even before the surgery).  But now I have the exact opposite problem.  I just eat enough to take the hunger edge off unless it is to sit down for a nice meal out.[/quote]
