Well the problem is you can eat what ever you want with the sleeve , just not as much. That's the thing to watch out for with the sleeve. I'm 3 years out from my sleeve . I gained 40 lbs back because I had no problem with snacking all day long . I'm an emotional eater too. I ate carbs when I was stressed. Carbs slide right down and don't fill you up like protein , fruits and veggies. You have to really focus on changing the way you eat and how you think. Instead of eating find something to distract you. Take a walk , clean or read a book. Good luck with your surgery . The best advice I can give you is to use this tool because it can be a great tool but also really focus on changing your lifestyle . Eat healthy , exercise as much as possible. If you don't you will eventually gain your weight back.

I too would eat when stressed. Not sure why, but since my sleeve I haven't been doing that. Maybe it's that I finally realized that when I do that, I am punishing myself. I've worked so hard to get where I am today, and I'm not done losing yet. I don't want to go backwards, so I don't indulge my stress with food anymore. Some of it is decision on your part. Cdbloo01 has a good idea too, distract yourself. You will need to exercise, so do that instead of eating. Good luck!
