Lose100

Failure would be not doing it. The Lap band is not another diet. It is a tool to be used with the proper food choices. Your mindset must change in order for you to be successful. I was banded on 4/3/12. So far, I have lost a total of 65lbs. 26lbs during my pre banded waiting period and 39lbs since being banded. I should of lost more then 39lbs but I started cheating. But now, I am back on track. If I don't loss another pound, I am forever grateful for any weight lost. I COULD NOT lost 65lbs on my own. I have lost 6 pants sizes, have more energy, less body aches and feel GREAT! It was worth every penny. My only regret was not doing it sooner. Please do not let fear keep you from trying.

Awesome

My marriage was not all that great before WLS. My husband has tried to sabotage me since the beginning of my weight journey. So far I lost a total of 66 lbs. I went from size 24 to 16-18. He never compliments me. He finds something wrong with every outfit. He tells me how stupid I look on a daily basis. He says "I can't believe you wearing that" or he laughs and shakes his head. I know he has issues but I refused to let them be my issues. The more he criticize makes me more determine to keep losing the weight. If we do get divorce, it will because I can't take the emotional abuse anymore.

Soon you won't need medication

Congratulations on your success

LOL, yes phone don't let you do a whole lot. Tablets a little better, but nothing like the old pc to get the job done.

Hiccups is my signal to stop eating. If I try to eat pass that, I feel a little pain. Now, after the 1st hiccup, I stop eating. Sometimes that is hard to do became the food taste so good. But, I got to listen to my band.

I have lost 8 lbs in 4 days!! Turns out was heavier than I thought but lost the lbs I did not know about.

hahaha.. you people are hilarious!!! This is better then watching soaps. I don't have in-law issues..I have CHILDREN issues!! Grown azz people living in my house, cooking fried food every night at 1:00 am ... it smells like Mel's Diner in here!!! I have been the biggest person in my family since ... forever... but now.. I am steadily loosing... and they are all gaining.. I am gonna be smaller then my children!!! And when I finally am able to shove my son and his fiancee' out the door and we finally have an empty nest.. I am turning the extra room we have into a "red ear turtle" sanctuary!!! At least they eat healthy things.. hahha. I already sold all the living room furniture. They came out and were like "hey are we getting a new couch?" NOPE!! I went out and bought a bowflex, treadmill, stationary bike, weight bench, free weights, stepper, two swiss balls and yoga mats. I turning my living room into a LIVE LONGER room!!!

Congratulations on crossings your legs.

Once again, you are misinformed!!!!!

Wishing you all much success on your journey.

Thanks to all for your support! It really lifted my spirits!

This thread is proof of how great the forum can be.

Good luck to you! I am on March 27th and no matter what negative people have to say, or whatever they try to do to talk me out of it, this is whats best for me.

Awanda, I don't know how much weight you lost with your lap band. I do know that I would NOT lost as much weight as I did with WW or any other diets. I will take the black eyes, loose skin over fat any day. All your responses are negative. If you are unhappy with your lap band, that is your issue. STOP spreading your poison on this site. We are here to provide support. Take your negativity somewhere else!!!

...and another thread you're trolling. Seriously, you're this pathetic that you have nothing else to do but go from thread to thread talking out your @ss?
You fail.

No cholesterol medication, that is truly a blessing. How, wonderful. Watch out blood pressure meds Cruz y'all are next!!!! Keep us posted.
