I don't understand what you would feel quilty about. Yes, some people think it's the "easy" way out and don't realize you still have to work for the weight loss. I did the surgery, not so much for the weight loss, as I have lost the weight in the past without it, but to avoid the gaining it back plus 20. I have lost 85 pounds and have about 20 more to go. If I had done this without the band, I know my weight would already be creeping back up due to my "celebration cupcakes"!!! Please stop worrying about what others think and do what is right for your own health and sanity.

Welcome to the monthly challenge. This month is the "Be My Valentine Challenge".
Copy and post the template below and fill in the information by Wednesday Febuary 1 the come back every Wednesday on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th and post your updated weight. I will keep track of the weights and try to get a table listing everyones results on the following weekend.
Good luck to everyone and remember this isn't a contest it's a challenge and you are a winner no matter how much you loose.
