Question for everyone

Well, hang in there ... even the winter of 2005 was a bit tough for me, I was caught up in what seemed like a whirlpool, and if I hadn't reached out, I would have been sucked under by now (just goes to show ya, weight loss surgery doesn't cure everything). I started going to support group meetings (not just weight loss surgery support groups), but that's actually where I met a lot of people (well, maybe not a lot, but a good few) who have helped me through a tough time. I still go to a lot of support group meetings all over the Chicago area. I think my point is: some people will "get" you, some won't ... and you shouldn't waste your energy on those who won't. Its not always "us" that has the problem, many times it may just be "them". If you can, perhaps you should check out a couple support group meetings ... you might be surprised at some of the similarities you may have with some!! Take care ... you'll do just fine, and just by reaching out and opening up yourself here, I think you're off to a great start. If you need anything, please let us know! Karyn
