So I am not in any social media sites like Facebook or twitter. But I am ADDICTED to Bariactric Pal. I can be on it all day. Researchinh, commenting, reading, liking. Does anyone feel the same way?

Who me? Yep, I'm addicted too, but this is a healthy addiction. I'm sure at some point it will taper off but I don't anticipate that being for well over a year from now. There's too much to learn and share to leave so quickly.

Guilty here too...

I spend my work days with this site 'on' in the background...

I'm assuming that it's all a matter of where you're up to in your mission...

I'm 9 months post-op so I'm still very much lapping up the information...

Plus, on the odd occasion, the company in here isn't too bad...

At least I am not alone in my addiction. Lol

It's because of me, isn't it?

ROFL I gotta say I love those lips!

Hi my name is MimiB and I am a BariatricPal-oholic!

@@KindaFamiliar Fired!! @@LipstickLady It's always you! You had me at hello

BP is fun even though when I read that it makes me think blood pressures.

Oh hello @@Elode

Gee, how I've missed your attention...

I think it would be an interesting study to compare WLS patients that frequently engage here versus those that attend support groups versus those that don't seek outside support. This site has been has been absolutely vital to my WLS journey, and I know will play a huge role in my long term success.

@@KindaFamiliar Oh I know.....I know.

Soooooooooo ADDICTED!!!!!

it's worse than my Netflix addiction! In fact, I have been watching Netflix for 3 episodes of Longmire, and have no idea what I just watched because I've been catching up on BP!

Love you all! ????

Yup I always got to see what is coming out those lips. Lol

I feel you I don't even play games on my phone anymore.

Please don't let them make a 12 step program. Do we get a coin or something. Ooh no we have our tools. ????

I think I am addicted too! I am in UK no support groups here where I live in Wales so its Bariatric Pal to the rescue. Some posts make me laugh out loud, others make me want to weep they are so sad. So thanks to all the people who I read about and their messages, far too many to mention individually but please everyone, keep on posting!

Same as Chris really. We don't have support groups where I liv in Englande, nor much follow up with the team apart from 6 weeks, 3 months and 1 year. They are always there if I need them though, however I chose to read and learn from others in support groups rather than keep contacting them.

I was on a lot when I was recovering from surgery and tend to be here (in the background) if I am working from home. I wouldn't say I was addicted though and quite often stay logged in when I am not here because its easier than keep logging in.
