Apologies are not needed, I am just happy that you see what life is like on the other side. Growing is something that we do during this process and you are making wonderful strides. Now I am sorry that some people on this board have not let something posted in January go but oh well - onward and upward. *giggles* (ok I couldn't resist).

Just a few more steps to wonderland......and believe me I am taking baby steps (ugh).

If your referring to me... well I better start getting more busy with my support groups...
continue to talk about why I eat and why others eat around their surgery...

I want to break this cycle.

Suggestion: I statements and WE statements are less attacking. remember we are a support group not a bashing group

"Support groups" are crap. Find yourself a therapist or a psych that specializes in weight loss surgery and/or eating disorders.

No. I know nothing about you.

You MUST break your own cycle.

A support group may be beneficial -- but -- you will find out once you're deeply involved that it's UP YO YOU.

Food is not the enemy. We are our own enemies. It does not have to be that way.

Why did you eat so much of the wrong things that you now need WLS?

Those are the same reasons someone might eat around their surgery.

yep you got it. They are just relying on the tool.... ( i fear of this for me)
I am grateful for all the responses and everyone who tells me how they think eating cookies is normal. UMMM WRONG!!!!
.
lack of dealing with the emotional part by drowning ourselves in ALL kinds of bariatric, food addiction, possibly child hood issues groups.

You think eating cookies is not normal? It seems pretty normal to me. Most people I know, fat and thin, eat cookies. The difference is that the thin people one cookie once in a while and the fat people eat a whole bag of cookies every day.

Seriously, what's not normal about eating a cookie?

i ate because it tasted good. I still eat because it tastes good I just eat a lot less now. I come from a family FULL of food issues... we binged as a family for years because it tasted GOOD....

FOR YOU TO ASSUME that I have emotional issues that need to be resolved seems just as presumptious as you are accusing others of being.

Look we've all been in your shoes pre-op... we all want to say NEVER again... we've learned better and we're just trying to share our knowledge with you...
