Transfer Addiction On NIGHTLINE tonight

Guys FYI - tonight on NIGHTLINE on ABC is scheduled to air a story about Transffer Addiction.  Some of the footage was filmed at my WLS's (David Voellinger) support group when Barbara Thompson was speaking.  They interviewed a few people that have Transfer Addictions.  Here is a link to the story. http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/story?id=3256212&page=1 Just in case you are interested in this type of thing. HAVE AN AWESOME WEEKEND!!! Chris 326/193/175

Hope they don't show my picture. DD

I have a problem with the term transfer addiction .Many poeple that get rny and other types of wieght lose surgery have addictive personalitys. If you never drank  alcohal before your surgery then you might not drink after.But if you drank to much before you might after. It is as if the media has to look for a negative to poeple losing wieght  and regaining there lives. I drank beer when I was 140 lbs more than now and sad to say I still do. It is not a transfer of addiction just because I am not  overwieght any longer and not eating bad foods and still drink beer.

Chris, I'll have to give it a look... Thanks for the heads-up! Best Wishes- Dx
