  1. Hey Everyone, I haven't written in a long time but I have been trying to keep up with everyone. I was banded on the 9th of March and am down 33 lbs. I have gone from a size 16 to a size 12 (which is kinda of loose but 10's too tight.) I feel great. I have 2 fills and the last one has been a little tough. (11cc band and I have 6.7cc in) but I know if has been from not chew,chew,chewing!! I still have more to lose but everyone says I look great and not to lose any more but I think health wise I need too. I haven't told my husband this but the other day at the grocey store parking lot I had a guy came up to me and asked if I would go out to dinner with him the next night. I smiled and told him I was married, and thanked him for asking. I felt really good. I have several other men give me that up and down look and smile. My ego has needed that. At 50 I can still turn heads, even my girls have noticed it. They aren't sure what to say. hehe My knees don't hurt anymore, I don't get out of wind as easly. And best of all I don't get hurgey. I don't eat breakfast because I am to tight. I have a well balance lunch and small dinner. Most of the time after dinner I am done for the day in the eating deptment, if my husband get ice cream I have a bit or two of his and am happy with just that. The grocey store bill sure has dropped. When we go out to eat, I get something small and either my husband finishes it or I take it home. I have been putting it off but I think I need to tell my husband all this extra food has put a few pounds on him. He has been very supportive in this journey and enjoys the new look. I have had fun getting new clothes and even wearing heels everyday. I've trying out new make up tricks and new hair dos. I am even sleeping naked at night. So this was a good thing, a very good thing. I have no regrets. I have learned alot and continue to learn everyday. I LOVE my band. Patti 200/167/don't know yet
