Will you always be fixated on food? That depends really on you I think,and how seriously you take your therapy. I know for me I had to fix the hole in my emotional heart before I could deal with the food. You are super brave in that respect. So make sure you follow through with therapy, you will find it makes all the difference in the world. And when you finally discover why you chose food to cope with your issues, the light will go on and you will say OH MY GOD -- DOH!!! it's a liberating experience:)

I agree with "T"...food has been a good friend for you only you know how long. It is always available, it tastes good, we all 'need' it to sustain life but it's also there when we aren't necessarily hungery. It's a drug too in that the sugar in food elevates us (temporarily) and gives a good buzz. It's addictive in that way. I think that the fixation or habit can be eliminated with time. Healing can come if allowed. You're sounding like you're doing pretty well and the nurse seems to say you're 'on target' so hang in there, don't be discouraged. Journaling will help and what fun to look back on the progress months from now. Live today as today as that's all you have~~yesterday is gone and tomorrow isn't here yet. God bless you!

Can I tell you, I was shocked when you left me a comment saying you were down 40 pounds and back to work already. Did you JUST have the surgery? You go girl! Keep it up. You're totally kicking ass.

Though I don't know the details of your therapy and what you can and cannot eat, I almost had a heart attack when you wrote that you were going to drink some Coke! I can only imagine that it can't be good for you with all those bubbles. I relaxed when I got to the part where you said you were throwing the rest out. Whew! Keep it up girl! You are doing fantastic!
