Topic: Crossing Over to Transfer Addictions...VERY BAD TIME OF THE YEAR!
REMINDER....
http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/crossingtotransferaddictions/
Hi All,
There is a new OH Online Support Group. The above link will get you there.
It's called Crossing Over to Transfer Addictions.
This group discusses the issue of transfer addictions (also known as cross addictions) after weight loss surgery. there are millions of people who have undergone gastric bypass who are now dealing with issues of addiction transfer.
For a number of people, giving up overeating leads to adoption of a new compulsion.
Addiction transfer occurs when someone is unable or unwilling to rely on one compulsion (for us, it was food) and so switches to a new compulsion (alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, shopping, internet, porn, etc) due to not having dealt with the underlying issue behind the compulsion.
***Please feel free (and safe) to join and discuss any and/all issues you have regarding Transfer Addiction. ***
WE WILL SUPPORT EACH OTHER WITHOUT JUDGEMENT!

Topic: RE: 50 lbs down!
Congradulations! What an incredible goal to set for yourself! Keep up the great work!!
Topic: RE: My Experience
I understand your reasons loud and clear! I really would like to go with Dr B, but as you state it takes longer to get an available spot with her. She is a very busy woman and I admire that. I understand what keeps her so busy is that she is a teaching DR.
So far my experiences with her staff have been good ... I only had one situation where I did not get a response back and had to call the office for an answer. Otherwise each person I have dealt with in person, on the phone or via email has been extremely helpful.
Had you chosen Dr B before you were "approved by insurance" or did you make a decision based on when you could get the surgery? I hate to think of waiting any longer than I absolutely have to, but I fear it could be months if I wait for Dr B.

Topic: 50 lbs down!
Sorry I've been MIA. Life got so busy once school started and it's been non-stop til now. Such is life as a teacher and small business owner.
I reached my first goal just before Christmas. I wanted to be down 50lbs by that day and I had achieved it 2 wks before! I've added new pictures to my profile to show the change.
The weight has been coming off slow, but that's ok....slow and steady wins the race!
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays to you all!!! How have you been?

Topic: RE: 6 month diet while pregnant?
Please don't feel discouraged. Please be happy about your little baby. That is wonderful news.
I would imagine you would need to contact your insurance agency about the supervised diet while pregnant. Best of luck!
