One Addiction for Another...
You 2 are brave. I just got over an addiction. And I'm close all the time to going back. And before this thread I had not even thought about the possability of replacing my food addiction with my past obsession. I pray that does not happen. For me it is worse than any drug.

I'm still not banded, hopfully 4/20. But this is one of the reasons I want to git fit. I have a 8 yr old son and 3 yr old Girl. And the last time Me and My wife went to an amusment park. I was way bigger than the last time, and could not ride some of the rides. I was so sad for my 8 yr old he had to ride by himself. And I wanted to hide. Oh the shame.

For Just Us Guys
Hi all I have a 4/20 surgery date andjust started preop diet today. I was to start diet on 4/6 but I really did not think that I would have surgery 4/20. Because my wife is having the surgery also,but she went to her first consultation 1 month after me. But she had ins. aproval before me, because they sent her labs and info under my name. and when we got it fixed she was aproved and I'm still waiting. I talked to lapband soultions today and they said that by next week they should have aproval. And to keep up the preop diet for my 4/20 date. So my question is this. should I tell them that I did not start the diet on 4/6 or just keep quiet and be extra good.
