wanttobe110

Hi Kathy, I see you are going to be banded soon. Yeah! I am eating a lot of mushies and some regular food- Pasta, for example. I am going to try that fitday.com- I went there briefly and it looks cool. I am only 4'9" so 110 is realistic for me. That would probably make me a size 7/8. I've been that weight before. I struggled with weight all my life but I was only 10-20 pounds overweight until I got married in 1992 and lived in the most unfriendly place. I make friends easily, but the people there were just so cold. So food became my friend. Hubby worked nights so my food loved me and was always there for me and never let me down. It became my life. Then we moved from there (YEAH), but I had three children right away and my father died so here I am at 100+ pounds overweight. But the band will change that!

Hey, Go for the band. The band will help you keep the weight off forever. I lost a lot of weight on Weight Watchers only to gain it all back. How discouraging! Good luck!

Hi, Thanks everyone for the support. I get my first fill one week from today. My doctor did say that I might not loose weight the first month, but I see that a lot of people have lost during the first month. I am always hungry, but she said that I would be since the band is empty. I guess I'll just wait till next week.

Hi, I'd be interested in a gathering. I live near Sandy Hook.

Hello, I have been banded three weeks and I have lost nothing. I am discouraged that I have gone through all this for nothing.
