@@melyssafaye, thanks for taking my obsession to a new level. Just kidding.

I did know about baking Quest but keep forgetting to try it. Thanks for the reminder.

Shopping. I love new everything. Clothes, shoes, purses, things to put in the landscaping...ect.

I do like walking a lot. But stress has kept me from that.

Also finger nail polish! I have over 50 bottles and still have trouble finding the perfect color for my mood.

Most of us are (or have been) addicted to food, but what other addictions/ obsessions do you have?

I'll go first....

I'm addicted to/ obsessed with:

•constantly checking my phone throughout the night

•over-exercising

•buying new socks

•gardening

I'll try to think of more and add them later.

I'm addicted to my phone DVDs my weight

scale

sudoku

BP

Getting rid of stuff that I don't need (clothes too - NSV).Anything that just add clutter (books, VHS tapes, knick knacks, extra bedding, extra plates/pots/pans). Its like extreme spring cleaning - simplifying my house - is my excuse!

Given up the booze (12 years ago), fags (6years ago), can't give shoes up and now the weight is going, I'm buying some fairly decent bits of clothing. Unfortunately, my obsessive personality is kinda egging me on to just buy that little bit more........... Saving a fortune on some foodstuffs though so have thoroughly justified my spending to myself. Just have to hide my hoard from Mr Economy-Drive (husband)!!!!!!!!!

Coffee!

I like to drink! I've decided to quit for a year after my surgery, though.

I love reading! I always got my nose buried in a book!

I love make up. Sephora is my version of heaven.

And of course I love food, that's what got me here. Mexican and chicken nuggets.

I'm obsessed with budgeting our money for up to a year in advance, going on cruises, watching superhero movies, etc.

I'm also quite smitten with my wife. I never want to know a day without her in it.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
