    I can't even count the number of times I've been told that in my life - even has this fiddle player once say to me I don't go for fat chicks but your face is gorgeous - like I should be flattered!

    Thanks for sharing! What a good story. Something similiar happened to me too... my back pain was so bad & due to that I fell right before thanksgiving then got regular spasms in my legs. I felt so fat & old and sickly.... I went to one support group as I was already interested in hearing more on the lapband. On Christmas my fiance gave me a gorgeous silver claddagh ring & it would not fit on my finger! I was so embarressed...I realized just how bad I'd become...and pursued this since. Almost 8 months later...I'm getting a band on July 5th! Praise god for having those events occur so that it opened my eyes to how unhealthy I'd become!!!

    downhomechik got a reaction from Jim1967 in Getting Nervous!!   
    I'll quote my surgeon when he asked how I felt about my upcoming surgery. I told him I was nervous & anxious...he said there would be something wrong with you if you didn't have a healthy case of nervous. You are about to embarking on a new phase/life journey and its an all or nothing committment! It's ok to be scared. You are about to severe your damaged relationship with food for good & in a few months you will be glad you did!
