Topic: RE: I am so ashamed!
Sweeetie, I know this post is a couple months old, but never hate yourself like that. That's the thing surgery doesn't fix...our minds. We get obese due to mental issues and unless we face them and get help for them we will continue to treat food as a medication.
I am having a hard time, too, but I seem to be back on track and losing again. It took about a year of soul searching to realize that I AM WORTH IT. My band has to be kept pretty loose, so the weight I've lost in the past 3 months (27 pounds) has been all me.
I follow the protein first rule...get in about 4-6oz of CLEAN protein (nothing packaged. Band sucks...tight a lot of times, so I have a lot of organic ground turkey), then I usually have a salad a day and a fruit "dessert" a day. I don't do soda, coffees or anything like that. Jus****er and I add mio flavors to spice it up.
If you need to talk just write me. I so understand where you're coming from. But we can't expect miracles. You lost the weight and you can do it again. Step on that damn scale and then promise yourself that you're going to reinvent yourself. Look for an addiction counselor or another type of therapy outlet. This time focus on fixing your mind :) hugs

Topic: RE: Lookign for Friends ( Fort Myers area)
Hi Elaine! I wish I could make it to the meetings. Usually it falls on the wrong times for me. One of my family members will have surgery with him in Nov. He is one of the best doctors I have ever met.
