I haven't been struggling a whole lot with cravings just yet, Im newly post op, sleeved 01/24/13, but my StepMom said something that I think I will help carry me through this journey. I wanted to share it with the hope that it speaks to some of you the way it brought me "peace of mind."

: food isn't going anywhere. It will always be right in front of you.:

She's right. And down the road when I have achieved my goal, I can enjoy any of it, in a new found moderation. But for now, kiss my ass junk food! Comfort food! Empty calories! You do nothing for me. I've got more important needs than to indulge in taste. Time to get right. ♥

That's a very good attitude to take
