    I have been married 42 1/2 years. I get for no reason gifts. I once mentioned I wanted a diamond wedding band, he surprised me with one! You never know.

    You do have to do it, you do have to want it, but you are absolutely correct, it isn't easy. WLS may not be the easy way out, but for me it is the only way out. History says I can't do it any other way. Keep the faith, and give it time, you will get to where you want to be.

    Terry Poperszky got a reaction from Kime-lou in Coping Skills   
    Kime, couldn't agree more, I am the child of two adult alcoholics, I am 20 times more likely than the average person walking down the street to be addicted to something, but alcohol and recreational drugs have never been a problem, food has always been my drug of choice. I firmly believe that the pleasure centers of my brain light up like a pinball machine when I eat, just like a junkie shooting heroin into his arm.
    But I also believe that want/will power don't stop at just what I put in my mouth, they encompass using every tool at my disposal to try and beat this addiction, even pulling out old college text books, attending support groups and following the rules the Dr. gave me.
    Don't give up, don't give in, keep fighting!

    The sleeve is the new fad, and once the data is in, it will show the same problem as GB, stretching the stomach/pouch out, and the patients gaining the weight back, just like patients who eat past the band. I think there will always be a place for the band, people who don't want to mutilate their intestinal tract.

    Terry Poperszky got a reaction from TBone55 in Failure   
    "I still feel like a failure and I should have lost much more by this point." Those words sound soooo familiar, where have I heard them before??? Wait, I know, that is the voice I keep hearing in my own head!
    You aren't alone.
    You aren't unique in your feelings.
    And most importantly, you aren't a failure.
    Don't know how you feel about the bible, but take a look at 1 Corinthians 10:13
