Topic: not going to be a good year
  i just found out that there is absolutley no way i can have surgery in 2009. I had such high hopes for this year and now i have nothing to look forward too. my insurance says i need to show 6 months of a supervised diet and i have failed at that many times. i just don't know where to begin. im only 18 and i have nothing going for me and all i think about is what my life could be like if i lose 200 lbs. I just cannot believe i have to wait 12 or more months to even begin the process of getting approved again.  Plus i was sitting on my couch today and the wood in it broke. I've never felt more worthless in my entire life. and of course in this situation i would go out and get fast food but i am going to try my hardest not too. Anyway thanks for reading...

I was already well cross-addicted prior to my surgery.  I had years of sobriety in AA, and was already well aware of my food addiction.  I also had tons of debt from my shopping, and had even dabbled with the sex addiction. 

I am sensitive to your hesitancy to attend an SA meeting.  You may want to consider Debtors Anonymous, as they can help with the shopping addiction.  Google them and find a meeting.  I attended one, but need to focus my recovery on AA right now.

Welcome to our little corner of OH.  We are a great group of supportive people.

Hey there,
You are totally right about the too smarts.

Any thoughts on a Steelers/Eagles SuperBowl?

yea right dude.....I "kno better" than to let that happen too. However, 1 drink becomes 5 drinks, 5 drinks becomes 10, 10 become bottles of wine or hard liquer.

Never say never....that **** can and will sneak up on you and you won't even know it.

Just my own opinion. I had surgery (rny)in '04, and was a full blown alcoholic addicted to narcotics by '07. By the grace of God, I've been completely sober for over a year.

Don't let you guard down to alcohol...it always wins.
Go Steelers!!

I'm pre op so I have no experience, but because of my history I've looked at how my meds would be effected with surgery. Because of the mal absobtion component your meds may need to be adjusted to account for your new inner workings. I would definately contact your psychiatrist to start adjusting your meds.

Good luck!
