You will do great! Follow what you feel is right for you. I personally can not see how any one who had a choice would chose anything but lap band. I look back and can not imagine the person I was before the band. I tried to lift something that weighed eighty pounds, the amount I have lost so far and I couldn't, I thought wow and I was carrying that around 24/7 on my body. I feel so blessed that I was able to have the lap band surgery and that so far its been very easy to follow and lose. Believe me if I can do it anyone can.

That is such crap. I got banded January 17, 2013 and as of today I have lost 80lbs already. I would never get gastric bypass, too many complications. I have not had one issue since I got banded. It's the best thing I could ever have done. I know people who got banded a few years ago and have lost 150+ pounds. Banding is the right thing and remember the band can always be reversed, gastric bypass can not, it's permanent. Good Luck!!! Keep your chin up!!!

I got banned in January 2013 and have lost 72 pounds so far and still moving right along. Off of blood pressure meds, off all diabetic medication and off almost all other medications. I would do it all over again, it's been great so far. I have a question, how do you get the weight loss ticker on the bottom of your page?

I super proud of myself tonight! I hate doing things alone. I had made plans to start the C25K with one of my friends this evening. Well 6 o'clock came and went and she didn't show up. At 6:30 I texted her asking if she forgot about me (I confirmed our plans only 2 hours earlier), I waited another 10 minutes with no reply (while struggling with myself over wether to go alone or not). I finally decided this is about ME and I need to do it for ME and I can't count on anyone else to make it happen. If I do Im just setting myself up to fail. So out the door I went and I ended up at the community center where they have an indoor track and found they also have child care! Score! So, I joined the fitness center and did my first day of C25K with just me and my iTunes! Here's to many more evenings of getting healthy ALONE! And I'm ok with that!

Congratulations!!!!! give it a couple days the achy feeling will go away.

ok now I understand, its your trigger that lets you know to stop eating before it makes you stop lol So far at least with the pudding and yogurt or grits that I am allowed to eat I feel full so i stop. This runny stuff I seem to be able to eat about 3/4c. I really appreciate you explaining soft stop. It's important to know.
