  1. my decision to band

    · ozzy greene · 09/18/2007 20:52

    Hi I am Bob at yobobby100@yahoo.ca I went to the Surgical Weight Loss Centre on June 19 th. I weighed 353 pounds I am 5 foot 10 inches. I am 42 years old. I, like most of us have tried different things to lose weight. I twice lost all my weight. Once by starving myself on and off for months and then at 35 I had accupucture and it worked but, I put all the weight back on and a lot more. My family was fearful of me dying. I was worried as well, although I thought diebeties plus I am 42 not married no girlfriend no children and I don't go to dances due to my weight. I knew for sure I had to lose the weight and keep it off.
    I had my surgury on Aug 7 2007. I am so happy ! ! !
     
    Best decision I made in along time. My band reminds me not to buy things like a whole pizza (which I used to eat in one sitting) or family size bags of chips or cookies (that would be gone totaly in one hour) I also gave up my daily 5 litre pop habit. I now walk each day. My pre band weight was 353 at surgury it was 330 lbs. two week check up it was 308 lbs. and now on Sept 18 it is 284 lbs. and I know I can't over eat like before. I am an emotional eater and an extreme over eater. I love my band ! ! ! It is a great tool for anyone who needs help.
