Congratulations on your amazing weight loss! I think those voices are the voices we have when we are over weight/fat. As we all know in our society "fat is bad". I see my surgeon on January 5, 2011 and will schedule my sleeve then. BUT what I would like to share is that for me-I am over obese because of my relationship with food. I do not eat to survive, I survive to eat...if that makes sense. I believe people who are obese have a relationship with food meaning that food is serving some other purpose than fueling our bodies. Why don't diets work? It would be amazing if losing weight were as simple as following the instructions of a diet. This is why they fail. I went to therapy for my eating patterns and I found that I was eating every two hours-medicating myself with food-ADDICTION-food addiction-not vicodin, alcohol, marijuana, percocet, cigarettes-my addiction is food. You will lose the "fat mentality" and finally be free of all that obsesity bound you of....
