im an addict, have been for 4 years, lol. so i was seeing if anyone else wanted to keep in touch that way. if so, message me! MySpace.com - www.myspace.com/358044006

thanks for the posts. it helps to keep hearing it, esp coming from people who have actually been there & not my size 4 mom :smile2:

youre getting a surgery to permanently change your health. quit smoking, it hurts you :smile2: i finally quit when i was pregnant with my daughter, been a quitter for almost 3 years & it feels great.

hi all. i havent been around for several months. i lurked for a while, maybe posted a time or two, but i wasnt sure if i was going to actually do anything well i was banded 8/15, so about a week ago. this week has been rough. its been way more emotional that i ever thought it could be. i have cried & cried, freaked out & said i regret this. right now i think i might say i still regret it, but i dont know. its just such a huge change. my preop nutritionist appt was horrible, she said i was copping out by saying food is an addiction to me, but if im not going thru withdrawals, then i guess im some sort of freak. ugh, i dont know. anyways, i havent felt good at all. my incisions are ok, i hurt one during a freak out, but its nothing im worried about. i just feel physically exhausted & mentally drained. (sorry to dump all this, haha just hoping someone out there could give me some hope) i dont know if at times if im hungry or if my stomach is upset. its very strange. the thought of Protein drinks makes me feel sick to my stomach, so i know im lacking protein right now. i forced myself to drink at least half of one this morning. sick. everyone around me keeps telling me it will get better, but right now i feel like shit & i feel like im going to feel this way for the rest of my life, help :thumbup:

thanks for the encouragement i have talked to a couple of my friends about this & while they will be supportive, i know they cant relate at all. i have so many questions & such, i just dont know where to begin. anyways, yeah, lol.

hello all, im new to this forum. im a 29 year old SAHM. im considering the lapband surgery & am here to talk with others going thru or who have gone thru what i am now. i was pretty average growing up. i often joke that i was good til i turned 16, got my license & directions to the drive thru i have lost & gained weight so many times & so many different ways over the years. im just sick of it. my negative feelings towards myself are now affecting my children & my husband. its time for me to take control. i currently weight around 300 pounds. ugh, i havent typed that number out, ever. anyways, i look forward to talking with you all. <3
