Not really dying. It's just really hard, but amazing that I can go to bed hungry and wake up 10 hours later fine. The hardest part is still cooking for and feeding my kids. By habit, you pick up a bite. No wonder I'm big. My mom and one of my BF are supportive, but I think some people in my life don't want to see me thin agian after being overweight the last 10 years or so.

I am being banded on Feb. 28th in Columbia MO. I'm currently doing my 10 day pre op diet ON DAY 2, and feel like dying most of the time. My friends and family don't understand.
