I'm addicted! I get on at work and at home... I love sharing with my hubby about stuff I learned about and stories. I also like showing him a few before and after pics and say "see honey, this could be me some day".

Yep me too!! I'm here way to much during the day when I'm at work. I don't always login at night but when I do it keeps me from getting bored and roaming the kitchen!

Yep, always on company time...... ooops! I AM addicted--

Sometimes I get a little burned out like when I read where someone did something really dumb and wants forgiveness from everyone and I stay away for a while (i.e. 4 hours!!!) but then I'm right back on again!!

Thanks everyone, for making me feel sane!! :ranger:

I feel like I am in "this whole band thing is new and I need to know everything stage" so yes I'm on LBT a lot.

Problem is my laptop sits right next to my comfy TV chair, which means when I'm online, I'm sitting and not moving, however, you can not eat while typing and reading posts keeps me out of the kitchen, so I guess it's a trade off.

And I have learned a lot from this site. I think as I get closer to goal and further along in the process, my "newbie" interest will fade. We'll see!

I'm addicted too. I am on here several times a day while at work because is faster than my internet at home. It is a source of support and education. Keeps me focus and encouraged. My boyfriend tells me that i am addicted to it and Curves. As if he is not addicted to wrestling and football (watching that is). I remind him that I could have other addictions.

Yeah right...he can't say anything because he spends just as much time (if not more) on CAR message boards! BORING!

thank goodness I am not the only one...thought I was going to have to get some "help" for my LBT addiction. But everyone is so good with advice and willing to answer "stupid" questions. I suppose there are worse things I could be doing in the evening instead of being on the computer...like, uh...eating a gallon of icecream. :omg:

      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.
