I am so addicted to food it's rediculous. Yesterday I ate Kentucky Fried Chicken, I had a thigh, wing and turned ariund and ate a drum stick along with mashed potatoes and gravy a biscuit and cole slaw. I also ate at least four Holloween cupcakes and my son told me not to do it because he know that I will get depressed sonner or later. This is pure greedy and I am on Jenny Craig lol. :thumbup: I know that I can't do it on my own. I have been trying for the longest time eith diets and diet pils and have kept the weight or lost much.:biggrin:

This is the support that I need. I have read a post with a question"why wouldn't you tell people about getting the lap band" something similar to that, and now I know why. This is a decision that I have to make on my own and I really appreciate the support from al of you, you understand where I am coming from, and furthermore my cousin has never been fat in her life. Now on the other hand she has a sister which is my best cousin that is over 300 pounds and feel that she need more than me because of family history of overweight people on their father side. So she think jusrt because I don't have family history of obesity in my family that I am not dire need of the surgery. If I do decide to go with this I will not say anything else about it, I would have to keep it to myself. There are certain risk with any surgery you have.

Hello everyone, I had a long talk with my cousin and she think that I can lose weight on my own. She said I move around a lot but I make the wrong choices with food. I went to Jenny Craig and weighed in at 278.8. I am averaging about a pound a week, I am losing weight but it is not enough. I do not want a quick fix, I just want to finally lose weight. I want to be under 190, not for sure yet. She also has a friend that has the labband and had difficulty with it and she had to be hospitilized, I am not for sure why, but she is scared for me to get it. She said that her freind is not as happy as she was before she got and sort of regret it. What do you think?

Is there a long process through Kaiser? I have Kaiser Medi-cal and would like to get some info before I go to the orientation. do not have a date yet for that.

My name is Maisha and I have been procrastinating having the lap band. I have been on almost every diet and I have failed everyone. I know that even if I were to have the lap band I would still have to change my lifestyle. I am now on Jeny Craig and it is so costly and sometimes I can not afford the food. My husband does not agree with me having the surgery,but he is also not fat and don't have to carry excess weight. When I first went to formal seminar I weighed 290 in 2007 now I weigh between 282 and 279. My weight keep fluctuating. I need a lot of support not just from family but from those who have suceeded. My mother and my best cousin will support and my cousin is deciding on having it herself. I have medi-cal and I belong to Kaiser so I believe they will cover the cost. At least I hope so. I also called to make me an appointment with Kaiser so that I ca attend the orientation. Thank you for listening to me and I will keep you posted.
