City: palm springs State: ca | Wade~ oooo my brother...i feel your pain. I quit smoking 6 weeks before surgery. I had quit before and only "cheated"...to the tune of a pack a day (for a cheat). I am seeing a shrink, have been since about 2 months before surgery and plan on keeping it. What I've learned. My weight is a secondary condition to a primary issue (long story short...something from my childhood). If you could see a shrink, I would.
For the smoking, my suggestion. Wear the patch. There is a pill Chantix, but the patch worked for me. Tell yourself that your getting the band for your health, and that the smoking hurts your health. Try to see past the smoking and look towards your health, and a skinny healthy future. Good Luck!

City: Springfield State: Missouri | OK my previous post was before I read this last page...I'm getting a grasp on my hormones now....
Wade-I am trying to find "other" things to occupy my time. I too am a very additive person. I am trying to find other things to become addicted to... like making better choices, and being more physically active. I know sounds boring and wholesome, but can be fun and entertaining too, mostly healthier.
Kity- Sounds like we may have something from the past in common... Crazy how things from long ago can affect you today, just like it was yesterday.(for me anyway).
Just like Dee- I can't believe how much of my life has/did/does revolve around food-eating it-seeing it- getting it- fixing it- finding it- thinking about it- preparing for it- waiting for it....you see my point. I have a lot of changes ahead if I am going to be healthy, happy, and thinner!
Good luck to each of you/us on this journey! |

That reminds me of a comedian who was talking about, "getting some...when is it going to happen? who will I be with? where will I be? What will I wear?" She of course was talking about sleep.

City: Columbus State: OHIO | Stevee-
Not to discount the hurt feelings going into old navy. But oldnavy.com has their styles in bigger sizes. A girl does need to buy a few things before surgery.

State: Ca | I could not agree with you more baybee, the disappointment when it does not fit right or the color is not what you thought and then the hassle of taking it to the post office and standing in line is such a drag.
Hope everyone had a great weekend, we had a surprise party for one of my employees that is leaving when school is out, we had a blast. I shocked everyone by wearing a long skirt and blouse. I am not a big fan of dress but dammit I did look good. Well that is what I was told. lol
Take care have a great week.
