  1. Thanks so much for replying - May I ask you why it is not being successful for you - Is it because of your "head hunger"?? because that is exactly what I am afraid of. I do see that the success stories outway the non sucessful stories - I truly hope I am a sucess story - i am ready to give it 100%
  2. Hi everyone - My name is Ginny and I am scheduled for surgery on March 20th - of course I am excited but very nervous as well. I have been over weight my whole life - the last 10 years it has become out of control - I am 371 pounds - I am looking to loose about 200 - 225 pounds. I know I have a very long journey and I am ready for what has to be done but when I speak to people or hear people say that this surgery did not work for them it scares me - I come on this site to hear sucess stories because especially at this stage i need to surrond my self with only positive people and positive comments - Don't get me wrong I understand there is only siccess with this or success with anything if you put the time and effort into it and i am soooo ready for that.... I hope to be updating all of you with my sucess:tt2:
  3. Hello - Yes, I had my first child 10 months ago - I am 43. I had him through invetro. I am scheduled to be banded on March 20th. I definitely need to be at a "normal weight" with a child who is going to be walking soon.
