    I was not a huge soda drinker so when I did not think it would be a big deal. I drank a ton of it in high school but had pretty much given it up since then. But since I was banded in January I have had the worst craving for it. I would buy a 12 pack and it would last me for a month or more but now that I am not supposed to drink it I want it that much more!!
  4. Hey everyone. I live in the Dayton area and am new to this site and support groups in general. I played football and basketball most of my life and could eat whatever I wanted and still stay around 200-225 mark. I am 5' 8" but that is a weight I liked and felt good at. I started working a desk job in 1999 and the weight began to pile on, I changed my excercise habits but not my eating habits and soon I could not excercise my way back in to shape. I could where gym shorts and baggy shirts when I worked so I never realized how out of shape I had gotten until 2005 when I began to work in an office. I had to go to JC Penney big and tall department to buy my clothes and was shocked at how large I had let myself become. I weighed in at 365 pounds and felt like the world had ended. My wife and I had a daughter in Dec 2006 and I told her I was not going to let my size affect our daughter. We bought bikes and went riding or hiking every weekend but the weight still did not come off. In November of 2008 I began the journey to become a banded person. I went through Dr Teel at Miami Valley Hospital and was banded on January 20th (almost a week ago) and have lost about 20 punds since surgery. I look forward to sharing my concerncs fears and thoughts with you as I go through this journey.
