for an obese person the right way is to never over eat... for an alcoholic the right way is to never take that first drink... for a drug addict the right way is to never try that first drug... and so on... but since we dont live in a perfect world... the right way is to survive and give other people the encouragement to do the same.... the right way for any one suffering from a disease is to go seek help... Do not let other peoples opinions override your own.... I chose to live... to be healthy.. to be active.. Who's life is it anyway?... its mines and I'm proud of my decision to have WLS... and if other people don't understand.... that's your issue not mine...

It's all true except that with food addiction we still have to eat right...So that is where the retraining our minds come in to not over eat and what we are eating to be good stuff...Stuff that will support you wanting to be healthy and active and the person that is hidden underneath that fluff.....

Your right...It is their problem if they don't like that you have done this and it is their problem if they cannot except the new you who have made changes to better yourself.....

You look wonderful by the way.......Go get em!!!!!
