No game

Tell you what you can have the kids AND I'll throw in a box of donuts!! You know I'm I'm a man hoarder so you can't have my man, But I'll take yours (again)...

Just take care. Be patient with the process, this is MAJOR surgery and it takes time to recover. But it will get a little better everyday. The first week was definitely the hardest! Good luck to you, Laura

Hehe, depends on who does the licking... And by the way feel free to yell at me like I did you

See normally I don't care if my family eats something crappy, they are all really fit.. But I have hit a wall this week! And I want to eat! And I don't trust myself at this moment.. They can eat all the junk they want in the car on our way to camping (4 hour drive) but the smell of fresh warm gooey yummy donuts would do me in right now.. Oh I think I'm PMSing (and camping great combo). Plus I'm pissed at my kids anyway..the ingrates!

Thank you, it's nice to know I'm not alone my fellow November sleever.

Brain fart??

Update target has officially apologized and now has put plain old grey.. Or as jay Leno said last night battleship grey

I am 4 months out, I can eat a slice if pizza.

Oops I swore again!!!

Naw fiddle don't sweat it.... I mean how many threads have I fucked up? It was just my crazy mind thinking out loud again.

Wow this went to an even weirder off topic place than I expected... This forum is like the telephone game I used to play as a kid but worse!

I know... even the Mexican kidnappers are bored of it!!!

Fiddleman You said; Why not feel comfortable with transfering a food addiction to an exercise / health addiction? What can possibly be wrong with that? "As long as you don't take it to an extreme" Well why couldn't we just be addicted to food and not take it to an extreme??

Lol!!!! True! So true!

I agree with you butter in regards to the "healthy" food people THINK they are eating... It definitely plays a part. I'm more interested at this point in the mental aspect.. You say you still have those addictive thoughts. It doesn't surprise me. As a matter of fact I think you fight really hard to keep it straight. And have, in my eyes transferred some of your addictive qualities into your exercise.. I've seen it so many times with addictions. My brother had addiction issues (not food) And when he was working his program I saw the same person but he was just addicted to something else (AA and exercise) it scares me because... Well it scares me on a lot of different levels.

So what I'm gathering from the responses so far, Most of us would say yes we have food addictions. And and one (or two) have stated that excess weight is more from a medical problem/malfunction..not from over eating in its self So now I ask, is that the case when people remark that they are in fact NOT a food addict, It is do to extenuating medical problems only?

But maybe some ARE NOT ADDICTED?? Thats what I'm trying to figure out
