    So Nervous

    Best wishes!! You'll be banded before you know it. There seems to be a crazy learning curve, ha, but no regrets! Fabulous decision. You'll love it. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
  8. One persons strengths will be very different to the next persons, and so we should never assume that just because something seems relatively easy for us, it is easy for them. With that said, and still feeling sick and feverish... I'M HUNGRY! HahaHeehee. ;)

  9. Everythingtogain: You've been too quiet lately haha. How are you feeling? I 've been nasty sick with a cold (i think), but Lapband related things are going pretty good. I battle the head hunger more than i imagined i would, but still stoked about my wls decision. Hope you are too! :)

  10. Hi lifestylechanger67! We share the same doctor, so I'm really curious as to how you're doing post op? Are you happy with your decision? I had surgery 8/31. Ive been hungry a lot (could be head hunger too!!), but all in all pretty darn happy. Fighting congestion and fever the last few days, but all else, lapband related, is good. Best wishes... would love to know how you're doing! :)

  11. I very RARELY get sick, so yesterday and today are yuck days. I'm conjested and my throat hurts really bad. Plus fever... :/

  12. I really am happy with my wls decision, but im curious... Will this always feel like a diet?

  13. My daily needs: Serenity...Courage...Wisdom...and Lapband! ;)

  14. "Easy way out" my... !!! Day 17: Please let me rule with my brain this upcoming week and not head hunger! :)

  15. A successful day!!! I'm logging food and exercise everyday, so that one day in my future i'll be able to figure out why my hunger teeters from ravenous to

  16. Hope you're doing well!

  17. Wondering how you're doing post op. We share the same doctor. I hope you're feeling great and loving your decision. :)

    Lost Motivation

    I'll be interested in what other successful bandsters tell you. I'm trying to take in as much good info as possible.

    Lost Motivation

    Portion control, stopping eating before feeling full, and carb control are all the lapband lessons I am anxious to master. My food choices are generally pretty good... I got fat from eating too much!! We'll get this down though -I have complete confidence!!

    Lost Motivation

    I don't have any great suggestion for you because I am so new to my own banding, but I want to tell you I'm sorry you're having such difficulty right now and I hope things get easier very soon. Keep the faith... I know others on this site will respond to your plea with helpful advice that will resonate with you and help get you moving in the right direction again. Best wishes!
  22. A little disappointed in myself today because i did not stop eating even though i knew better! I didn't go crazy and my food choices were okay, but i want to be in more control.

    Huge Disappointment

    Your disappointment is completely understandable. You want this ... You can do this ... Girl, you got this!!

    How Have You Changed Since Lap Band Surgery?

    Somewhere along the line I lost hope. Without hope even the most beautiful things in my life -places, people, moments, etc. became dulled and underappreciated. Today I have hope!! And, I'm finding more and more ways to express the abundance of gratitude I feel. Hope... I can't believe I ever lost it, but I did. I pray I never forget how close I came to undervaluing all the blessings in my life.
  25. For the first time in A VERY LONG TIME i feel hopeful! My mental attitude is getting in check and i'm becoming a better wife and mother. Thank you lapband!
