Donna Anne, I am also glad you have taken this information/advice to heart. What you were describing was sending up red flags to me too.
cnvh, remember: smoking after WLS can also cause complications. Mainly the result is STRICTURES. You've read the horror stories. WHen you think about smoking again, sign on here and read what others have gone through! Maybe that will help. I know it's hard to quit smoking but I did it. You can do it too!
You are so right about the addictive personality. In my life it's been: smoking, drinking, cocaine and of course eating. NOW I am realizing it's shopping. Thankfully I see my counselor next week. I really need to speak to her about this realization.
