Guest guest Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 , Do you want to change your life? You might as well go all the way. Change jobs, to one that has insurance. Stick it out another year, then go in for the surgery. You will not crave food, much less carbs for a good period of time - long enough to get over the cravings. Then, if you do cheat, you will not like the outcome and decide it isn't worth it! That is the best advice I can give; but it is never hopeless.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Thank you for your words. I am currently looking for a job that offers insurance at a better weekly rate. I live in a small town and it is hard to find such jobs but I will keep my hopes up. I guess the word hopelessness was a very harsh word to use. I really should have used a better word like, disappointed. But I am actually doing a little bit better today. I am trying not to be too hard on myself but it is so hard. With this surgery does it really help with the cravings? I am so afraid I will want to eat the bad stuff. But I actually know it would totally hurt me physically and make me sick so I might not… lol a bit of a out loud argument with myself here…lol have a good day.
