yes, I understand what you're saying very well. I get my band on the 21st. I too am so embarrassed. I have lost the weight more times than I care to count and always gain it back. I am either losing weight or gaining. Never maintaining. I have only told the people that MUST know. I don't know when or if I'll tell or not. They are doing a hiatel hernia repair at the same time so that's what I'm going in for. (yeah)
I'm on the other end of the age question. I just turned 65 and having my band done on May 21. After fighting my weight since grade school, I'm ready! I bet I've lost 1000 lbs and gained it back over the years. I'm only (about 60) overweight this time but on my way up. I decided to do this after my daughter did so well. I'm in Arizona. Let me hear from ya all.
Hi, I;m Sherry too. I'm having mine on May21. I don't live in Avondale but just off the freeway and Carefree hiway. Who did your surgery? How's it going?
