@@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

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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
