:confused:I have my band date (04-09-08), The closer I get to my date the more I realize how much I rely on food. When I'm nervous, emotional, etc, I reach for food. I hurt my arm the other day and I can't believe how bad I wanted something to eat. Anyone else experience this?

hi, bft33 my bd is 04-09-08 also. i only have to do 8 days of liquids. my bmi is 40, im 40 yrs old

You have come a long way, you are too far down the road to a healthier you to turn back now. Picture yourself this summer.

This is so true,thanks.

Thanks for sharing. I see u were recently banded, how long were u down? In pain?

My band date is 04-09-08, I don't think I would have made it this far without you guys. I'm so happy to have found this forum. I was with my best friend today and she has such negative feeling about the band. She claims she know three people who have the band and they all have negative results. ( haven't produce none of their numbers) I don't even bring up the subject to her. I'm trying to remain positive.

Hello, My name is Angie(eigna). I'm from Michigan and yes I am very tired of the snow. I weight 250lbs., I'm 5'6''. My band date is 04-09-08. I was scared at first, but now I'm shouting bring it on. :confused:

When u said for good this time, it make me think of all the struggles we go thru tring to lose weight

If I don't get the band my health will be horible in ten years.

I started when you had to do 12 months, BCBS they just changed it in January. My personal Doctor gave me 4 months, If you go to a doctorly monthly for BP or weigh in, this can count. I went in Jan and was told the rules had changed, I could have it any day, I got cold feet.

I canceled my surgery for similiar reasons. This was about a month ago, an additional 8lb, and many regrets. I go in Thursday for another appointment.

Thanks, I didn't even know there were different types of bands.

lol I haven't gotten banded yet...I haven even thought about that, I'm so afraid of getting put to sleep.
