I so can relate to what you're going thru. Although I do not think my pouch has stretched, I do crave carbs all the time. It has been such a struggle to stay away from them. When I returned to work from medical leave, they moved me into an office w/ three other women that bring junk in everyday to share w/ all. It is so hard for me. I relate it no different then an alcoholic sitting in a room with alcohol. I've talked to my boss and he just tells me to have will power. He can bite me. I don't have will power. That's what got me up to 400+lbs. I'm so scared that I'm heading down the wrong path. Big Hugs, Christina

Hi Christina. Thank you so much for your message. Yes, I agree about the willpower statement. If I had willpower, I would have never gotten SMO. He can bite me too! I hope to see you soon. I miss seeing you at the party and it's been so long. Big hugs to you too! Lucy

I know why I love OH! Its ppll like Christina and Lucy! I love your bluntness. I told my boss his wife and 3 co-workes just last Thursday to BITE MY A$$ when I was told I was being discussed behind my back. Its a cut throat job and I try to mind my own buisness. Well then because I turned down a after school trip they decided to talk about me. I was blunt about how I felt and did not hide or talk about them to anyone behind their backs I just let them have it. I asked them which one paid last months bills for me to let them decide if I will take extra work! So Christina I would just tell these snackers who love to Share to please not offer you any thing. I would never eat something some one brings if not offered because I would not ask for some. So no offer no eat!!!!! My work has peanuts, doughnuts, and chocolate in the office all the time. I just avoid the office. I just go in lay my paperwork down and go back to my bus and wait to leave. I know how hard it is to see...or smell some of the junk foods, I fight it all the time but I try to never let my pants get too loose a tighter fight (fit) stops me from grazing. After all that is what sent me in for WLS.....Ok sorry I just got angry that your boss isn't more supportive. We all will suceed I promise just go day by day.. Best wishes to ya both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Karen

Oh can I relate. My coworker brought me a chocolate muffin today. I tossed it in my drawer and ate off of it all day long. I don't know whats with me, but for the last 2 days I am craving everything. Lucy, your post is so important. It shows me just how easy it is to loose track of my goal. Its just a constant struggle. I have to get back on track after my 2 bad days. Your such an inspiration to us all. ~Michelle

Hi Michelle. If I can help someone with my experience, at least something good came out of it. It is a constant struggle. Normal people think that once you have the surgery, you will never gain weight again. How false is that? It is definitely not the easy way out. At least I am taking a positive step to get back on track and learn from my mistakes. Lucy
