went out of town to visit family and all they served was bread things starch carbs yuky. Candy every were. Glad to be back home and on the program again. PmainLa that was to funny. As Reveire said Join the Club LOL.

I had surgery on a wend and returned to work (desk job) on Monday. And there is no way I would have been in any condition to go camping on day 2 post op. Its none of my bussines but your boys are going to know you didnt just go to the Dr. Good luck please be careful. This is not a walk in the park or should I say campground.

Good luck and let us know how you do. I am so going to get this skin removed. Be brave and I will keep you in my prayers.

Great Job never see the 3 number again . I am so happy for you.

Great post every one. I do remember crying once over food in the early stages. Not sure what about now but I did burst into tears . Hang in there it gets better. I wish I had done the charm thing from the start. Hmmmmm maybe I can start now.

Zip 0 nothin. bummer

All of the above. Every single day I have a new nsv. Yesterday I was waiting for my daughter to finish her ballett class. She later told me that when she walked out the studio, she thought to herself who is that women she is pretty. And then she said to herself " Oh wow thats my MOM." How cool is that.

" Regardless of how much I love and care about my husband, it was time for me to put myself first. Sometimes I think that this process will make us stronger, but you never know. I'm just taking everyday as it comes right now.: AMEN very nicley put Pam

I think I was so unhappy with myself that it did put a strain on my marrige. Like most couples we still have all the same issues IE money , teenager, hard work evrey day on and on. But I feel so much better about myself now that I am much happier in my marrige and life style. One of my main reason for getting the Lap Band, was to be able to participate more in my own life. I can now walk with my hubby and daughter and keep up and go ahead sometimes intead of sitting on the couch with a glass of wine I go to Zumba. I love that every day is a new NSV. I still have a long ways to go but I know I will make it in time. So I think it has made my relationship with my husband and daughter soooo much better. When the times get hard I can handle it so much better now. I have a new inner strength. This helps me deal and cope so much better than before. On that note I will say it aint easy LOL. Good luck on the 15th.

I have gone without a double cheeseburger from mc donalads for a little over a year now. I told myself i would make it a year and now I have made up my mind that I will go the rest of my life without one. Miss it maybe a little but not worth it at all.

I am in. This will start my second year. I was banded 3/11/10. I was hoping to be down more, but I know that with out my band I would still be 82 LBS heavier. I love my band. I think I might, just might be at a sweet spot for the first time, thats with my last fill on last Friday. Took long enough LOL. Well good luck friends. Lets do this.....

I feel your pain. Please try and hang in there. I remember that time being so hard. Its almost been a year for me and Yes you can do this. Banster hell is exactly what you are goin through. Try to hang in there we are all here for you. 3/11/10
