Thoughts from 2 years Post Op
Thanks for posting this! I love reading updates from those further out. You have done a fantastic job. I relate to almost everything you said, especially about recognizing being a food addict. I am in very much the same boat.
You've done so well - thanks for sharing your experience! It's always good to see what's in store a couple of years out, especially the head stuff.

Happy Surgiversary Marny! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your success with us.
I'm following right behind you; I'm hitting the two year mark on the 29th. I think that as long as we keep fighting the good fight against the food demons and don't lose our perspective that we will continue to succeed.
Try not to be away so long next time! All the best, Muriel
