Once you are sleeved and on the other side like I am you rarely come on. Your tool becomes your new way of life and I basically have forgotten what the first 6 months were like. Now it's just...

I dump over fats, milk, and sugar.

Last night we went to a wedding. I ate WAY TOO many cookies, and drank WAY too much wine. I am paying for it today. My question is does it ever go away? Or will...
