Back on Track Support Group meets tonight!
Time: 6:00 - 7:00
Location: Centennial Center for the Treatment of Obesity at
2200 Murphy Avenue (Tace building) classroom.
This group is facilitated by Dr. Janice Livengood (psychologist) and focuses on working through issues those who are further out from surgery may be struggling with and weight maintenance. Dr. Livengood consistently
provides tools you can use to help you delve deeper into your emotional
attachment to food.
All are welcome!

I so wish I could come to this tonight, but I have to go to something else.
When will it be offered again? I NEED this group.

Marie, Dr. Livengood leads our groups on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Monday of each month. The 3rd Monday night is a formal presentation - for April the topic was, "Will I ever eat normal again (after WLS)?", the topic for May centers around body image. The 4th Monday of each month is Back on Track. The event schedule for TN lists all of our groups as does our website www.cmcwls.com.

Thank you,

You know...  (just me thinking aloud, hope that's ok)....  often times as a new post-op I thought that I would never have to worry about food again!  Hallelujah!  I was not hungry, my stomach was VERY tiny, I actually was repulsed by food for a long time after surgery.  Was I ever naive! 

I have come to realize as a "veteran" that this is not the case.  Those old demons do return one year, two years, three years, almost four years...  at some point, those temptations will rear their ugly head.  I realize that I will have a battle probably for the rest of my life.  Why?  I am addict.  A food addict.  

Anyway...  I want to say that it's great our bariatric programs recognize that we get derailed on our journeys, and try to help us get back on track.... 

I now return you to your normally scheduled broadcast.
