What are your other addictions/ obsessions?



Recommended Posts

I'm obsessed with budgeting our money for up to a year in advance. I'm also quite smitten with my wife. I never want to know a day without her in it. [/quote

I'm obsessed with budgeting too. I listen to the Dave Ramsey show every day, it drives my husband bonkers.

And the comment about your wife..... I so love that!

1. Traveling and exploration, my first love. If I'm not jumping on a plane at least once a month, I get.. itchy.

2. Ingress. Check it out. Really! It goes nicely along with #1

3. Meeting new people

4. Entrepreneurial type things. I love trying new things and learning the market. I am currently running a side business alongside my full time job and it's very exciting.

5. Homesteading.. fascinated by this, but I don't have the resources (aka my own home, a piece of land, etc). But I love things like brewing my own kombucha, making soap, candles, etc.

Why aren't we BFFs?! The surgery, has inspired me to change my life. I am about to go move into an RV and travel the country, and Mexico! I have this idea in my heart, that while I'm out there I will find a beautiful piece of land, to make a home on, maybe even a small farm! And you should definitely open up an Etsy store!

Angels baseball. I'm pathetic. I need to buy a treadmill so I'd at least walk while watching.

Shopping. I've always been a shopper, but now I have to replace every item since the old ones are way too big.

And makeup. Always have been into it, but it's gettin a little out of hand.

But I look cute.

I'm here in the UK and love anything that Ruth Goodman does. She is such a quiet genius and gloriously eccentric. She does great pieces for UK TV and her sense of dress is as much fun as she is. I reckon she's a bit of a treasure!

My latest obsession is nails! If the rest of me is beginning to look halfway decent then the nails have got to be got up to scratch (pun intended). No subtle colours for me either, just got neon pink gel. What do you expect from a 59&1/2 year old? Subtle beige or shell pink maybe?

My transfer addictions have been going back and forth between sex, flirting, working out, and my phone. Currently I am all about my phone and need it surgically removed from my hand. The attention and flirting are going to get me in trouble, but is sorely lacking from my husband. So I compensate by looking elsewhere. Working out is just something I do and have fun with to be healthy.

I've always had a shopping addiction and I don't see it getting better after losing weight. I love ebooks (fluff only - nothing that requires a lot of thinking or that will make me anxious).

I'm obsessed with dogs - particular my own. They are my children.

Unfortunately I'm addicted to FB and lately BP. Lol

I love gardening but we have a horrible gypsy moth catepillar infestation that prevents me from enjoying being outside and I haven't planted any flowers this year. Catepillar poop and chewed leaves rain down constantly and is everywhere in my yard, on my deck, gets in your hair! YUCK!

My latest food addiction is sugar free popsicles. I go thru stages. Last addiction was celery and sour cream dip - that lasted a few months.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
