Addicition



Recommended Posts

We have all sorts of Addicition from drugs,alcohol, to even over indulging in are food intake,which stress...... has alot to do with over eating! And food is a comfort thing.

Is a person that doe,s every thing to the Extreme an addict? In some way or Another. I found out in the past I was working out 15 hours a week tearing my body apart in the name of fitness & health.

I have cut way back and will just stick to walking & very lights weights.I know I was setting my self up for a fall,because I was trying to look like one of those modles on mens health magazine, which there have propbley taken care of them self for meny years I come to the conclusion that I can,t do all this in one year...

that was my goal was to lose and maintain 100 pounds I have done that then my addictive personalty told me that I could do it all! ( I ) have made

extreme progress in my Quest to be fit and health. I have done Good.

I still want to be fit but Im am not going to kill myself doing it,and exercise should be fun not a Job!

I,almost walked into a compaulsive disorder by doing to much,tell some friends of mine on LBT told me to slow down & my wife.That Im not going to do it over night I did not get fat over night and will not be thin over night!

I, can live with that,I,choose to fight the weight loss game every day at little steps. well to all of you I hope you meet your weight loss goals!!!!!

And to all the kind words of encourgement from all of you Thanks.JOHNQ

Ps if any could make this photo,s small and put them together for me like nina,s that would be great! Thanks again this last eleven month has been great with you all! Take care God bless you all.

One of the sexiest things about the "new" John is that big smile! Keep on smiling and give yourself some time for your brain to catch up with your body.

Thanks for sharing all of this with us, it sure does make me think.

I too am happy with where Iam in my weight loss journey, if I never lose another pound and I can maintain this loss, then I have won the battle. One day at a time!

      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.
