The Unhappy beginning

Since being banded, things have been up and down for me. The up is loosing weight and feeling great, and the downs are being able to eat real food and gaining a few pounds. It would be different if I were eating all the bad foods, but I would think having 2 protein shakes a day and fish and vegetable will help me maintain and loose the weight but for some reason I happen to gain 3 pounds within 3 weeks; Not the direction I wanted to go!

Patiently Waiting

So My appointment has been scheduled for September 3rd. I am excited as I am nervous. I can't wait to start a new lifestyle, make changes and stick to it. I have made life changes, but I naturally seem to fall off track. The hardest part will be trying to deal with my everyday life around friends. I have always been the party girl, the girl who enjoys going out and hanging with friends.
