Sorry to hear this is an issue for you. But you really do have to use some self control. And I am well aware that it is so much easier said than done! I have to remain aware at all time about what i put in my pouch..... I try to eat healthy but I choose wisely and good quality foods. But once in a while I will just crave something...and I know me...If I dont eat it then i'll nibble all around until i finally eat it anyway. I have learned to eat a single bite and walk away. The surgery wasnt a "cure" just a tool. My brain has had way more changes to learn than my stomach! But everyday i start off with the mindset that I am not going to go backwards! Hope you get things on the straight and narrow soon or you'll lose the "tool" to help yourself with!

I get mine by "prescription" and they are covered under my flex spending account.

I too suffer from food addiction! I have been really good at staying busy since I had surgery and have not gone back to my old ways of eating when bored. But I've had a crazy time this past few months with being stressed and snacking!! I still try to keep on the move so I dont get bored...but stress "snacking" seems to be creeping up on me. I eat healthy things we can have when I "stress eat" but feel like I am eating too much of them. Oh if the brain could have a bypass too....it would really help!!

You are looking wonderful! So proud for you!! Keep it up!

Wow, you GO! So happy for your success!!

I am so sorry to hear of your loss! I will pray for peace for your heart. I too used to surround myself with people who were helping me kill myself. I joined some BBW clubs, never had trouble getting a date...but deep inside I was so unhappy with myself! Thank you for this post, it reminds me where and why I started this journey! I am by no means close to being at goal (89 lbs to go!) but I am no where near where I started. My thoughts and prayers are with you today! May your heart be lightened and your sorrow be less!

YOU CAN DO IT! I have been watching your progress and you are doing SUPER!!!

Way to go!! I am still kinda stuck...not losing a lot but a little will do! I am less this year than last! Hoping to make it by my bday Oct 6. I am proud for you!!

ok, so Jenn...hows it going????? Almost at your goal???

I had surgery Aug 13 2012...I am one year out. How about you?

cheers to your "melting".... keep up the great work!!!
