tifagirl reacted to ♥LovetheNewMe♥ in Crying and cant stop.. Day 4
We totally understand, food always comforted me. I still remember the first argument hubby and I had post band, i use to use food for comfort and when it was not there, oh wow. I had to deal with every emotion, frustration and feeling I had. I was so angry with the band, me the doctor and my husband. it takes time to develop new coping skills but with patience and believing in your self you can do this. You went through all of this to make your life better, you will have some loved ones in your life that support you and some that tempt you. I will pray you find strength to pull you through your sadness and give you encouragement for your journey.

Well tell them the failure rate of the band is only 1% so they are the people who fail the band not that the band fails and when your all skinny tell them then how the band was a failure.

tifagirl reacted to lisapereira66 in Kids say the darndest things!
A few weeks ago when I was picking my 7 year old daughter up from school, she pointed to one of the other moms and said, "see her mom, you look exactly like her and she's not fat"!
Then yesterday, we were shopping, I had my back to her and when I looked up to find her she had a scared look on her face. She said, "oh mom, you're getting so skinny I didnt recognize you"! I think she was looking for me for a few seconds and didn't know it was me right beside her. Poor girl. I scared her. Makes me feel good though!
I've been a little down since the new year because the scale has been moving very slow. But I did start using my new Pilates machine, so I guess the inches are still coming off.
I have to say, this is a far cry from the child, who a year ago, while looking in the mirror asked, "mom, am I gonna look like you when I grow up? I said, "I don't know why? She said, "because mom, I just can't be fat! Broke my heart.
I had this sergury for many reasons, my kids being the main one. Glad to say, i made the right choice.

tifagirl reacted to carlak in I am so Darn excited !!!
Oh my Gosh!! What a Valentines present!! As many of you know I have been trying since mid July to get an approval for lap band. I have been denied many times. Never in my life have I been accused of not being fat enough! Lonely, sad and depressed, I turned to this site and made the announcement that I was giving up. My messenger started blowing up with support that I must keep fighting for what I believed. I did. After a million of letters, calls and pleas I got the official, unofficial (verbal) approval today !!! I am so darn excited!! I cant wait to start my journey. To each and every one of you I say THANK YOU !!! especially to Carolina girl, you have been so encouraging to me. I will certainly keep all of you posted. My surgeons office said that as soon as I get my hard copy approval we can start the process. I am excited and scared all at the same time. Hugs to all my "lap friends"
