  1. I know about 5 people who had GB who gained the weight back...or ended up having a leak in their intestines and having stuff leak out into their bodies. They may lose a lot faster but they have a greater chance of gaining it back and most seem to. Eventually it's like they never even had surgery and they are back to their old ways too. I chose lapband and I am sooo excited to have my surgery in November. It can't come soon enough!!
  2. My insurance told me one year at first...it didn't sound right so I called them. Turns out it was a mistake and I only had to do 6 months. I am in month 4 now.
  3. Becauseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I need to keep losing to be healthier for when my lapband surgery comes around in November. And because I want to lose another 9.5 lbs like i did last weigh in...in only 2 weeks!
  4. That's why he's an EX Susan. I love you all. <3333333 -hugggg-
  5. People calling and telling me the vehicles I have warrenties are about to expire...wtf lol they've both been expired for quite a long time now. And people calling about credit card bills...when I don't have one. Oh...and those missionaries who come to your house constantly and explain jesus to you.

  17. Also I don't have any life-threatening health problems from my obesity...I have some problems though like Depression, GERD, Anemia, Screwy periods, Diverticulosis, Edema, joint pain, etc. But I don't want to end up having diabeties, high blood pressure, and even worse problems. I'm nipping it in the bud before I am even more unhealthy. I am worth it, we all are.
  18. I don't think ANY of us are rushing into getting lapband. Most of us have been researching the surgery for quite a long time. We know it's right for us and it's what we need. I myself have been researching lapband for about 3 years and decided to get it in February. I will be banded in November and I am very excited. I am only 22 and at a very high weight and I don't want to not have a life anymore. I spend too much time closed up behind walls. I'm ready to LIVEEE.
