wanting real info from real people... Live near Pittsburgh, PA

That is a beginning place to start your journey. I was just asked to speak at one of these meetings in my area on Monday night. Must have been 50 or more people interested and they all had family with them the room was crowded. I was nervous to speak but I was just being myself and all went well. I have the Lap band and the other speaker had the GBP surgery. We both have done well. Between us we had lot over 300 pounds. I have lost 109 since June 29, 2009, a little over one year. He had lost more and also had more to lose. We both have done a great job getting our health back. I know I have added 10 or more years to my life. I do not take blood pressure medicine anymore. I no longer have Sleep Apnea any more and I can exercise which I could not even walk up stairs before weighing in at over 250 pounds. I was killing myself with food. I use this tool to the best of my ability. I so wanted to be small so I ate small amounts. I feel well if I eat Real foods, Not too much food, mostly plants with Proteins first. I stay away from sugar because that causing me to have cravings. I do not drink soda any more and I never drink with a meal. Kissed snacking good bye and I am as Happy as I ever wanted to be. I love my LB. Best wishes. imaluckydog
