Can only speak for myself, but since I found this site within the last month I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful, smart community at my beckon call. I am absolutely convinced that this forum has prepared me far better than my doctor and/or program has thus far. I take what I need and leave the rest and for that thank you -- not to mention it's calorie free:clap2:

I think any addiction that takes you away from the table....is a good thing. My addiction originally turned to exercise....now I peruse this site. We need to have something to do that keeps us away from the lunch buffet at Pizza Hut!! Happy Easter Everyone! POPT

Anyone else have the problem of not walking past the computer without sitting down to check to see the latest posts in here?? ARGHHHHHHHH!! But you're right, I too have learned sooooooooooooo much from this site and all the participants. Lots and lots of support and inspiration here!

teach, ive posted this in other threads...

but did i ever tell you about my birthday cake addiction?

two years ago i quit smoking (three packs a day) and replaced it with commit losenges, then i was addicted to those for many months, then i said, If i can go without one for a week ...on a thursday, then id let myself have one of those little birthday cakes they make in the bakery for one person?

so then i was addicted to birthday cakes....

I think I'll stick with my addiction to this site. No calories and no guilt!!:( Ok.. so the house work doesn't get done, but my computer table is very well organized now and the monitor is squeaky clean!!

I am very addicted to this site. There was another site (not band related) that I was addicted to fairly recently, I haven't been there in weeks...

I know the feeling.. I am on 3 other message boards related to cruising and I check them once or twice a day, but this board..... yikes.. I'm on it alllll the time! My name is Judy and I'm a lapbandtalk.com -aholic!!

I am addicted to the internet as a whole...hehe! cant take me away from it...I even have it turned on beside my bed at night so that I dont' miss an email...probably lack of a man in my life could have something to do with that...but shsss don't tell anyone

:) becky

Nah Becky that doesn't go away with a man, my guy and I are sitting here on our laptops both on the internet as I type. Its how we chill out for the evening in preparation for a big day at work tomorrow.

Thank God I'm not alone!! I was beginning to worry......
