I am 50 years old and it has been the best adventure I have ever been on. I did the lapband for health . It is a really short surgery. edie

BEST OF LUCK. edith

I can only suggest you make yourself accountable. It is a Dr Phil thing. Do not allow yourself to watch TV for example until you have walked out your front door and away from your house for 15 minutes. You will come back and have walked 30 mins. edie

Dear Faye, I hope I could. I take Effexor and have to take a Klonopin before I go to work. I have also been at goal since March 07. I am 50. Do we sort of fit? edie

3 more miles and I was hot. Wonderful weather. edie

1 more mile finally. Oh have I had stress in my life. I need my exercise. No time. edie

Wendy , It is hard . It took me 5 months to get rid of the head hunger. We are addicts. We didn't get to the lbs we are without hand to mouth. It is a habit . Our band is a tool. Hang in there. It is so worth it. I didn't know how much my weight was depressing me. I pretended it didn't. It was hard moving that weight around everyday. I always had to take a nap. I was missing out on life. good luck, edie

5 more miles towards tx. edie

I have been busy taking in 2 cats and one extra dog due to no heat in the owners homes. Oh well at least I have electricity. I was able to take my pet for 1 mile today. edie

Brrrrrr, I have been without electricity. My cousins with 3 dogs and gas logs took us in for a week!! My husband is a lineman for an utility company and of course is working horrible hours. I don't even want to get into what he is dealing with. So needless to say I walked one mile outside one day about 4 days ago. I lost 3 lbs sitting and freezing . Wow. edie

I love walking at the Mall. Just me and my Ipod. 3 miles today. edie

I was ablwe to walk 2 miles at the mall today. Makes me want to shop . Oh well it is good to look at the markdowns. edie

Been a very busy lapbander. In my week of vacation I walked 21 miles. 3 miles walk yesterday with pet and 3 more with her today. 27 more towards TN line. edie

Whew what wonderful wonderful and then a bad week and then a wonderful week I have had. Xmas holidays I was so busy and finishing up everything no "exercise" exercising. New years holiday week same thing. Then I had a cold virus that put me in the bed. Yuk with lots of Kleenexes. But then a week in FL with lots of walking. I am going to estimate 15 miles. It was wonderful ! The nature trails were the best. I was in the Port Charlotte area of FL. edie

I feel so GOOD. I feel so strong and energetic. 4 more miles. edie
