Last blog perhaps...?

What in the world am I doing continuing this lap band blog without my lap band? I suppose my main purpose is to give everyone insight on my journey. I still can't positively answer the question of whether my band has been worth the weight loss. I can say it made a difference in the amount that I was eating at one time. Although some cheat with the band, I rarely did. My progress has been all me. And a little help from the band. Most of my journey was slow and dull except for the last 3 weeks of my lap band's stay. I was so nauseous and

dry heaves were painful for days and days. After a week in the hospital, band gone and no more sickness. What a way to end a journey. I pray all of you much success. I pray for me continued weight contentment.

A lesson to all of us not to take our health, the tool, our lives for granted. Good luck to you; God bless.

I am sorry to hear you have had this experience, but it sounds like you know how to eat smaller portions so you can work the plan without the band. Best wishes.
