Thank you Hely 88 and Arzel ... to know that there is support out there gives me that boost I need to get this done.

At Missy I was banded July 2011 which is a disappointment to myself because I know that I am the only one in control of this life changing challenge. I have re-committed myself in hope for better success over this next year.

Hello Banders, I am reaching out to this group for encouragement and motivation. I've completely fell off track *sigh* The good news is I haven't gained any since being band but I should be much further than what I am today. When I started this journey I was weighing 310lbs. The lowest I've been was 250lbs. Currently I am 265lbs which is a 15lb gain. I know I can do better but I've lost the basic fundamentals of this process. Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated

Hi Fluffy and thanks for responding. Now I have another question; what do you mean by fluids?

I have been reading up on the lap band surgery but afraid that it's going to impact my chances of ever having children. I recently submitted an inquiry about the surgery to the local clinic and sure the doctor will let me know during my consultation, but I am too impatient to find out from him. Please Help
