Thank you so much! I was beginning to feel like a failure or something was way wrong with me or my band. I can eat as much and just about anything I want. I've had one fill that puts me at 3 1/2 cc in a 10 cc band. I have another fill in July and I can't wait for that restricted feeling.

I haven't told all of my family about the surgery and the ones that I have has been a mixed bag. Some supportive and the others telling me stories of people dying or keeping the weight off for a couple years and then gaining it and more back. I just smile and keep going. I believe that no one has a right to say anything until they have walked in my shoes and then maybe I'll listen. I have fought weight for such along time and I need another tool at this time to help me out. I'm not giving up just getting some much needed assistance. Hang in there and good luck!!!

I'll go for the bronze.

Congrats to all on your control! :smile: I'm not dealing as well with food right now but have an appointment with the nutritionist Tuesday and I hope that will kick me into gear. Keep up the good work!!

Congratulations!! I'm also scheduled for May 12th. I haven't been put on a liquid diet. My surgery will be in Milwaukee and I'm very stoked about it.:thumbdown:

Surgery date of May 12th!!!! I'm excited, happy but also very nervous! :thumbdown:
