can you tell me how to make one of those weightloss trackers

hello ok that was alot but in the end it is your decision i know that when i decided to get the surgery it was for reasons for myself im only 19 and i just had the surgery on the 15th i went through alot to get the surgery with my insurance i had to go to a nutrionist once a month for 6 months and i had to have test done and i had to go to a therpist with ur history of deppression im not sure if the lap band would b a help to you and the reason i say this is because with the lap band u can still eat whatever u want you know its not like the gastric bypass that causes u to get sick if u eat fats or sweets its NOT A QUICK FIX there is alot of work to be done after the surgery and its not easy if you were successful dieting and working out then i would suggest u try that but dont go on a diet because thats how ppl gain the weight back because they get tired of the diet or they just stop just start eating right eat heathier and work out a good thing that i suggest is to look at the lables and cout everything u eat on a normal day and then if is alot like more than 2500 calories cut them in half my doct. told me a good amount to shoot for is 1500 if trying to lose weight. and if this fails to work then go and check out a seminar they are wonderful about giving you the nformation needed to know a website that i studied alot was http://www.lapband.com/en/home/ it tells you so much about the surgery that when i went to the seminar i alreadyknew alot of what they were saying do some reay good reasearch before you commet 100% to it BUT IN THE END IT IS 100%YOUR CHOICE please keep me posted on what u decided to do and how ur progress is going i love this site

yo can chew gum i didnt know omg im going to go get a pack right now
