Jelly Belly

I was thinking the exact same thing. I am also wondering why she thinks I am her, because I just came along. She does seems a little nuts. I did like your statement "You sound like a spokesman for all the surgeons in the world." I think you are absolutely correct. Maybe she works for a medical supply company or something. We are here to help each other. Not degrade each other.

You did an amazing job! Congrats and you will ace your surgery!

I understand. It's tough. But remember. We didn't get this way overnight. It is hard. It is the hardest thing we have to go through. But we can do it and take one step at a time.

Huh? I am reading posts in order. Am I doing something wrong on a forum? I apologize. Can you please tell me the rules of the forum? Are you a moderator or something? Again. I apologize if I did something wrong.

How much protein is she recommending?

Wow! I know this has nothing to do with your thread. But I saw you speak at the Hillary Clinton Nomination! Thank You for all that you have done!!!!!!! Now onto your post. No a doctor never should have called you a name. Yes, we are all addicts. Addictions will never go away. I will always be a food addict. The day I forget that I am an addict is the day I break what I am supposed to do. We are all food addicts. That is the reason why we are in the positions we are in. Why do some people cheat on their liquid diets? It is because we are addicts. It doesn't mean we aren't ready for surgery. Heck. Very few people can stick 100 percent to the liquid diet. Just look at this forum. Does that mean those people aren't ready for surgery? No. Should they be insulted the way PeachesCat was? No. We are here for reinforcement. Positive reinforcement. If an alcoholic fell off the wagon they don't need to be attacked. They need to be supported and to tell them start again immediately. You can do it PeachesCat. I am sorry if you are still as sick as you are in that picture. Do not let anybody on a forum get you down. You are going to do great and remember. Nobody needs to insult you. Not a doctor or a unnamed person on a message board. Thank you for your service and your speech with Hillary was AMAZING.

It's normal before any life changing event to be afraid. You will do whats best.

I feel you. My mother thinks I can just diet. Why don't you just stop eating junk food? She doesn't understand it is more than that.
