OKCPirate 5,323 Posted August 2, 2015 No, no problem at all. I'm sorry to hear that about you. If someone knows of a link between smells and WLS, please let me know, but I don't know of any. If it has grown from an aversion to a phobia, there are some techniques to help you overcome: http://www.helpguide.org/articles/anxiety/phobias-and-fears.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Julie norton 2,850 Posted August 3, 2015 I don't care to food shop, but I know I need my yogurt, veges, a few fruits, chicken and chicken salad fresh. I really don't linger, and I spend very little. GNC makes me spend for my Protein bars/ drinks. Almost as much! I noticed I don't have what I call " my fat habits". For me those were cooking shows, cookbook perusing, lots of grocery shopping....you get it... All food oriented habits. Now if I could lessen the "lets meet for lunch/ dinner/ drinks "that most of the world attends... I would be happier. And I do meet friends for walks and non food related fun also Just me and my rambling 8 + years post op⭐️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
