wow!! i cant believe the much love you guys are giving me, i really feel pampered thank you so much. now i know i have people that would back me up with the band journey. my family is not in support of the lapband idea but i believe that this is my last chance of being happy and healthy and being there for my two young ones. i lost 3lbs in 2days making it down to 285lbs. i just hope i will continue to keep the lbs coming off. i am so grateful to everyone of you, and i promise i will be a success story in the next 6 months to come. i will keep you posted on how am doing. thanks again for all your advice and support!!

i wish to say thank you to ladyjordan and gowalking. you guys have made my day. as ladyjordan pointed out, the lapband wont help you to stop eating , and i really need to get that into my head. i also wish to congratulate gowalking on her achievement, i really wish am you right now and be able to control my eating habit. i will really put this situation into Gods hands and also try my best to do my best because i know that if this doesnt work then nothing else will work. i just have to start today and not tomorrow. thanks for all the inspirational talks, will give update on my wls journey tomorrow.

hi everyone, this is my first day on this forum. i am about the get banded on the 9th of october 2013. my present weight is 130kg or 288lbs and its my heaviest. actually my fear is that i have compulsory eating habit. its like a monster that has decided to take me down, no matter how i try to eat sensibly or diet properly, i will always end up over eating even more than i used to. yes i know i have the binge eating disorder but i dont know how to fight it. and my worst fear is that i might not meet up with the pre-op diet am requested to do before gastric band surgery. guys i have two little lovely children and i want to hang in there for them. i want to be fit and be around to see my babies children in future. i want to defeat this monster once and for all and i really need help and support from you guys. please any helpfull comments of how to fight the urge of binging and how the lapband helps with compulsory eating habit would really help. another thing is am in uk and am been banded in belgium, please do you guys know the best after care package company i can get. i have read that some after care companys are really not helpfull so i just want the best. thanks all. newgemma2014
