gettinghealthyforme

Yes I understand every body will loose weight differently. I also know i will plateau but wont let it get me down. It's nice to have alot of support as well. Congrats to everyone here who is working hard as well.

It took me 12 years to finally talk myself into getting the band. I have dropped 18 lbs since surgery and couldn't be happier. I have so much energy. It is great I have alot of support from my husband and kids. My middle son who is 6'1 and 185 has started to drop weight and eat healthier. My husband is watching what he eats as well. We take walks together more often. Before surgery we already didn't eat red meat or pork. No High Fructose Corn Syrup is allowed in my house. And we are gluten free. You would think we all would be toothepicks the way we eat. But I struggled with weight loss for the last 12 years and just had enough of the diets and the scale not going nowhere. I am so happy to have done this and i know to be successful i am going to have to put in alot of hard work. I am already up to 1 hour on the treadmill. i Just had my surgery on Jan 22nd 2013.
