  2. I am super frustrated bc I cannot seem to get a roll with losing the last 40! I upped my working-out and now I am hungry more often. I think I need a fill but when I went for a scan they said it was perfectly balanced! FRUSTRATION is taking over and I need a little support- anything?
  3. It is all a state of mind! If you think you are ready and you are not too sore- DO IT! Get moving-get losing! It will make you feel better by being out! However, not eating ballpark food may make you sad a bit- but get some Water and roll with the punches!

    So- whoever is out there is Lap-Band space, I have hit an all-time low I think! I have been banded a little over a year and have lost a little over 100 pounds! However, my personal life- well no longer exists. I was engaged- and I am in the process of moving out because, well that didnt turn out as planned. I am getting the attention I used to when I was thinner- however not from the people I want to. I feel like I cant please myself bc I have been on a very slow moving decline in weight over the past few months. I feel like I am so close to being done that now its not going to happen and with everything else personally- I am starting to feel hopeless- like no one else understands me! Any ideas?

  6. I am being banded on the same day. Where are you having yours done- GOOD LUCK!
  7. I will be banded on the 14th so close but no cigar- :tt2:
  8. I as well am 5'10 but weighing in at more than you darlin- sad thing is I am worried I wont lose as much as I want because a lot of it is muscle and I dont want to be skin and bones and just plain jane with no curves. My surgery is in a month and Im all over the board with what to do and think.
  9. :wink2: I got my surgery date today and was wondering if I should know anything before the adventure begins- any words of wisdom would be appreciated since I am one of the youngest getting it done and I am ready to get my life back- Any new friends would be great- and I cant wait to meet other people!
  10. Ok people HELLO Im samantha from V.A. I am being banded on 3/14/08 and cannot wait for this journey to begin- any advice would be great and or things to look out for
