Temptation
I am addicted to food and there are times at work when its hard to get away from junk food. Whenever they have a potluck all the goodies that are leftover are left in the lunch room for all to see. So im eating healthy but im super tempted by the cake sitting right in front of me. Any suggestions as to what i can do so i dont eat the bad stuff? Also note there really isnt anywhere else i can go to have my meals
I bake, a lot. I make cookies, cake, brownies, etc. The exposure and effort has me repulsed. I rarely eat anything I bake, and the sickly sweet smell makes me crave cool, crisp veggies. It can be a… read more

My first response is to give you a big long hug. Your first option is to just take a deep breath, get you a scribbler and write. Whatever you want. Write. Draw
Then, be kind to yourself. You are… read more
How Many More Visits With A Surgeon After The First One?
I’m having bypass surgery soon (in Toronto) and have completed all of the appointments. I have my appointment with the surgeon soon and was wondering if anyone knows if I will get my surgery date at that appointment? I was told to bring a credit card to buy the shakes I need to drink prior to surgery. Also are there more surgeon appointments before surgery or just the one? I can’t find anything clear online. Thanks!
Isnt it being covered by OHIP? All was covered including stuff needed before hand.
Had one surgeon appointment and one anesthetic appointment

Commercial Weight Loss Programs
Has anyone ever used a weightloss clinic like Dr Bernstein? Their's sound quite good but only if you can spared $1200. -- $2000. Some people might consider the $2000. grant if you can afford to pay in advance. I, personally, can't afford it!
Definitely out of my price range.
Do You Think I'm Starving Myself
My friend, she started out as my cousilor but that was 3 years ago. She's more like a second mom to me now. She thinks on the new diet I started yesterday that I'm starving myself. I eat 4 90 calorie snack a day ( 1 every 2-3 hours) 1 500 calorie lean an green meal ( 2 peices of chicken and a cup of green beans) coming out to about 860 calories a day. Do you guys think I'm starving myself? I just feel like this is the only way I'm ever going to loose weight
I want to join or start a keto support group. I need help, too!
