I think addictions often begin as a pursuit of pleasure to numb the discomfort of painful losses. But addictions multiply the pain. In time, it becomes worse than the pain we were trying to relieve.

food.

The more we eat to feel better, the more our bodies work with our emotions to increase the demand. The cycle is addictive.

I think I matched all 7 leading indicators 11 months ago so means I am still a raving food addict. Gotta make it 1 more month...

I just posted this in another thread about Easter...

One week after Easter!!! I thought I made it through scot free. No such luck! I just got back from my mother in laws house I had to go drop off the dog because we are going camping tomorrow... Well right before I leave she hands two Easter "bags" full of candy for the kids AND

Another bag for my husband and I "if I wish to partake" she said. Lord above help me Cadbury eggs and chocolate Bordeaux Eggs!!!

The agony! The temptation! I need to be strong but being strong has always been my weak point.

Oh and did I mention I'm PMSing (and going camping great combo)

What the heck? Why on earth would she tempt you in that way when she should know better. Frustrates me reading that. Grrr. I would get them out of sight as not to be tempting. Some people just do not understand...and she is family no less. I am going to give Fyre permission to go after her. Lol.

Haha.. Fiddle I think it's my week to be tested! Yesterday with "psycho donuts" today with chocolate eggs! I feel nervous about this camping trip I will be out of my "routine" and there will be many temptations (s'mores anyone)

On a side note. Some people after this surgery can't stand sweets now, not me.

And some people throw up after eating to much, I read it everyday here. I've never thrown up, I feel defective in that way! I want the automatic emergency evacuation method that others have if they f**k up! :P

Yeah, got the same problem. Never have gotten the slimes and can eat what ever, including chocolate. The kids got candy for Easter from their mom, but they have been good about keeping it out of sight when they are at my house. My little one gave me 2 m&ms because here daddy needed some Easter candy too...she's awesome and they were yummy....

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
