Yesterday was my one month anniversary and have lost at least 17lbs. I don't really know since I hadn't weighed myself since 2 wks prior to surgery. I was hardly on a diet at that point. I wanted to eat all the donuts/pizzas & milk shakes I could get my hands on.
I want to thank Buttercup8 and Daniela for responding. I needed to reset my password to get back on. Apparrently, I noted the wrong info. I wish I had what it took to do a pre-opt diet but I had absolutely no will power. I realize how much everyone's support means and I will try to do the same. I was blessed with a wonderful patient coordinator who would take my call during her dinner time. She was wonderful but it's time to move on. Others will be needing her now.
Hello everyone:
My name is Susan and was just banded on 6/21/08. I've had hunger pains since 6/22/08 still I do not regret my choice for one second. Being active was my life until my feet came down with plantar facsitis. I no longer could go hiking and continued to eat the same if not more. I had surgery in Monterrey Mexico with Dr. Rodriguez. I owe him so much for helping me change my life. Maybe my feet can heel when the weight comes off. I'm on vacation until 7/7 so am hoping to meet some walking and/or talking buddies.
