  20. Awesome so happy for you!
  21. You were right to use that analogy! I'd say well said on your part. An addiction is an addiction is an addiction whether it be drugs, food or what have you! A food addiction can be just as lethal as a drug addiction.
  22. Congratulations! That's awesome!
  23. don't sweat the small stuff. You've come this far so you should do fine. I think the majority of us Banders were apprehensive at first. 18 months later and all the worrying and nerves were for nothing. I'm happy I did it. I'm not a fast loser but slow and steady wins the race so don't worry and best of luck to you!
  24. And where Jack was able to drive where the wheels stay on the ground lol Jack!
  25. Congratulations on your awesome success!
  26. Wow Jack! Great loss! Where did you have your band done because my doctor says they don't make the 4cc band anymore. My band is a 10 and I think they go as high as 14cc?
  27. Ok, then I should have given up too! I was banded 12/38/2012! 3 days after Christmas! It was hard with all the parties and festivities around me! Did I cheat during my pre-op diet? You bet your sweet bibby I did! I was careful but I did cheat! Did I want to give up? I thought about it because everyone kept telling me they were going to start their diets on Jan 1st! I was saying that my whole lifetime! So, I stuck to my guns with an occasional cheat here and there and I still had my surgery on 12/28! Best decision I ever made! Otherwise I would have been on the same cycle, I'll start my diet after the holidays, I'll start it tomorrow, I'll start it next week or I'll start on Monday! Sound familiar? Please don't give up because you had one slip up! We all slip! Deep the faith and keep that appointment. Good luck to you!
  28. Don't worry, your friend is not sabotaging you. I think she thinks she may lose you as a friend. There are always compromises that can be made on both sides of the fence. I'm sure it will all work out and good luck to you!
  29. I've been smelling the roses for 18 months now! I am a very slow loser but have lost. My ultimate goal is to lose 60 more pounds.i don't care how long it takes as long as I'm following the rules I'll eventually get there! The good news is that I've kept off the weight I have already lost (that's major for me!)Don't worry, you will get there and don't give yourself a time limit. If I have myself a time restraint I would have given up all together. Congratulations on your surgery and good luck to you!
  30. hey Kitt, I loved your analogy! That was awesome! Thanks!
  31. That is awesome!
