I had mine done in 12/10/07 and my first 4weeks was hell.I was mad at every one.It was x-mas,our annv.,new years all in one but to keep from paying my deductable for the new year I had to have it done.I hated that everyone was eating things I wanted.I was a real crab.It does go away,and so do the pounds.although I haven't been watching what I have been eating and I have not lost any more.from 217 to 192.I have to get back on it....well I typed enough good luck,Kim:thumbup:
