    Secretly Fat

    YOU SAY FAT LIKE IT'S A BAD THING! Being fat does not make you a bad person or a failure, yes it's bad for your health, but you are who you are, fat or not. I was Banded to get healthy, I made peace wih being fat a long time ago. Be ok with who you are,yes decide to lose weight, yes get healthy, but you are ok no matter what anyone else says. You are the same soldier, wife, mother and friend you have always been. You are entitled to have pitty parties now and then, but do not hold yourself down. Enjoy, life is short.

    Banded 5/20/08 & Starting Over...

    First you have to stop beating yourself up! Second we would not have done such a drastic thing to lose weight if it was easy. We will sometimes eat what we are not suppose to eat and not exercise when we should. We will sometimes feel weak and depressed and like we are failing. We will sometimes want to quit but we won't. We will do what we have done our whole lives. We will pick ourselves up when we fall and keep trying. We will not always believe we are succeeding but we are! I am old,fat (for now) and have been through a number of "hard times" and I have learned,even when I wanted to, I could not give up. As "fat people" we have learned to deal with prejudice and being a failure in the eyes of other's. We will not be failure's in our own eye's. In this forum we are the majority. We know about being fat and treated differently because of it. Here we are who we really are. We stand by each other and we will not let each other fail.If you lose 10 or 200 pounds you have succeeded and once you have succeeded you cannot be a failure. So put on your big girl panties (lol) and let's all play this thing out. Life is a ride and this one's an E ticket (for those of you who remember E tickets) ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Zoloft

    Just was banded 01/31/11 and they told me I have to crush my Zoloft to take it. It is so gross even though I mix it with Boost. I don't dare not take it the withdrawl is the pits. Also did anyone else have troble with their surgery? I am feeling like the Lone Ranger.
