 Hi Mark,

It's Lee from the Wednesday night meeting at Kaiser. 

Good to see you posting here.  I'm sorry things are still tough for you on the food front.  It's so understandable.  I think it's great that you went back to OA.  I was a member for around 17 years and I still use the tools I learned there to help me with the food.  Try coming up with a food plan for one day and then just focus on the one day.  Don't worry about tomorrow.  Are you working with a sponsor that can help you?

The Nor-Cal luncheon is great and the people there are wonderful.  I go as often as possible.  I'll miss the June Lunch because I'll be on vacation.  

I'm going to send you a friend request.  I don't come around the CA forum very often, but do post on the VSG forum.  Send a message or call anytime.  Are you going to the meeting on Wednesday night?  I plan to be there!

Hello Lee!

It was good to hear from you.  I have thought about calling more than once but just haven't done it.

Thanks for the encouragement around going back to OA.  I feel like I need so much support, but I have to remember that I deserve support around my eating and WLS.

You couldn't keep me away from the Wednesday night support group!  In fact, I would go weekly if they were offered that frequently.  I will see you there.

By the way, I have been looking but have not found any info on the NorCal Luncheon.  Any suggestions on where this is located?

Thanks,
Mark

 Scroll down the pages and you'll find a topic called Nor-Cal Luncheon.  I'll see if I can find it and post so that it moves to the top.  Barb is the woman who organizes it.

I was serious when I invited you to call anytime.  I think it's so important to have support and people that you can count on to be there for you.

I agree about having different support groups because sometimes once a week just isn't enough.

Hi Mark - I am glad to here I’m not the only one who goes through this. I know sometimes we feel like we are the only ones who experience these feeling and thoughts about food.   I am a similar situation, just know you are not alone!
