  1. I have heard of this one other time in the group of people I was banded with here locally. It turned out to be a hormonal inbalance something to do with your pertuitary gland. No matter what she ate or exercised she still gained weight. I would start there checking that stuff. good luck

    I am so tired all the time. I cant wait to get this wieght off. My whole body aches after work. Doing anything is such an effort. I hate being like this. I have been dieting and walking and still nothing is coming off. Makes me wonder is the surgery will even help. Lost 2 pounds last month. It depresses me when I hurt like this. I look at people twice my age and watch them run up a flight of stairs at work. While I slowly knees and back aching the whole climb up them. God I hope this works. I dont think I can take any more aleve then I already do. Mind of a thirty years old body of a ninety year old. God I hope this works. :wink:

  20. Don't take this the wrong way but people like to see other people fail. They do because that way when they fail they dont feel so bad. They will also not want you to change for their own emotional needs. Think about what you are doing in this persons life that if you are thin and active might change. When you have more confidence in yourself is this still someone you would choose to be around. Are you sure this is a friend? A true friend will be happy and supportive not negative. As you loose the weight you are going to encounter alot of negativity try to find someone who is supportive or come blog with us. Keep your head up and don't let any one discourage you.
  21. Well tomorrow I go for my psyciatric testing. Im a little nervous I think I am sane lol. Anybody wanna give me a heads up as to what they are gonna ask me? I would appreciate it. Also wanted to say thanks to all of the responsis I have gotten to pre surgery advice. I really appreciate you all taking the time to help me out. My mother had the ruin y done about 15 years ago and it was hard on her health so I am glad I am not going that route. And she gained all her weight back in 6 years. Well I will let you all know how the testing go's. Wish me luck.:thumbup:

    Well I am two months away from having lap band surgery and I am getting nervous. Emotional to I think I might actually be scared to be skinny. I have been overwieght my entire life. Picked on, looked at, and skimmed over by the rest of the world since I can remember. I am on here looking for insight, guidance, friends, and support. I hope I find these things along the way. I have read a few blogs to get acquainted with the site and am amazed at the wieght loss. This gives me high hopes. Anyone with any pre surgery advice please send me a message I would be very grateful. :scared2:
