Thanks for sharing your story and being honest. You have helped me be honest with myself and to realize that my doctor knows his sh&% and wouldn't tell me what I needed to do if it wasn't for a reason. Thank you again Helen!

Congratulations on a couple of things. First the amazing weight loss! 180lbs is an amazing accomplishment. Second, congrats on recognizing that you are addicted to sugar and flour. This are big accomplishments.
Welcome to the lapband talk site. Everyone is very helpful. You will be given lots and lots of information and a lot of opinions.
I want to recommend MyFitnessPal.com. It helps tracks your food and exercise and what is great about it is you can add friends to support you. I can't remember my name (I think it is shaniko1970) on the site but feel free to add me or if you sign up (it is free) send me your id and I will add you.
Please know we are all here to help support you in your journey. Welcome again!

I need some ideas of really low impact exercise. I have had 6 back surgeries and have to have both knee replaced when I get the weight off. I want to exercise because I want the weight off of me. Please any advice is appreciated! Blessings ~

I had an Upper GI done to just make sure everything was working properly. I am glad I did, because it just helps rule out any possible question of leaks or malfunctions. I am not sure what your doctor will do for you but I wish you all the best in the world. Please be sure to check back with us and let us know how it goes. Blessings ~

You guys will both be in good hands. This is a new exciting part of your lives. I am a little over a month out and it is the best decision I have ever made. Just remember to breathe and be honest with the pain. Let the nurses know if you are having any nausea or severe pain. Stay on top of the pain and don't let it get out of control. I know you will do great. Please come back and share your journey with us. Blessings ~

First, I want to congratulate you on make the decision of a lifetime to become a "bandster". Second, I can totally relate to your nervousness. I have had many surgeries and I still was nervous. It is the fear of the unknown but you will be in excellent hands. Just think, you are making a very exciting change in your life so you are probably nervous about that as well. We are all here for you and hope to hear about your journey to come. Feel free to write me anytime. xoxoxo ~ Blessings ~

I had the "ants in the pants" terribly. Plus, I was extremely moody. I think with you being used to getting up and going, this is definitely a big change for you. I would try and take some time to enjoy the resting period. I know it is hard but you need time to heal. I don't know if this helps but I wish you the best and congrats on becoming a "bandster". Blessings ~

I had a glass of wine and it was just what I wanted. I was satisfied with a small glass and I moved on.

You look fabulous! I hope to look as good as you!

Congratulations! Can't wait to hear your progress. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Hi,
I currently live in Nevada but will possibly be relocating with my husband's company to the Peru area in the next few months? I just have some friendly questions about the area and would like to meet some other bandsters in the area as well.
Blessings ~

Lovely pictures! Congratulations!

That is great! We had surgery I believe on the same day and I did have a .5cc fill last week. I am hoping for some restriction soon. Keep up the good work!

Today is a very hungry day for me....Perhaps watching football with the hubby is subconsciously affecting me. Normally, I'd be munching on pizza, ribs, or carne asada nachos right about now. Instead, I'm drinking Water, halfway watching the game, and focusing on the big picture (what I need to do every minute of every day to reach my goal). I'm sure the hunger is mostly head hunger, but that doesn't make it any easier. Being connected to others who understand DOES help. :-)
I totally feel you Desert! I am watching the football game and wondering where my beer and chips are. But, we can do this. I am glad we hooked up on here and I am here for you if you need anything. Keep up the good work.
