  3. I'm just looking for any support or services in the Hudson Valley area. I will be getting services thry Albany Med-- but wanted to find more local support gorups and or buddies... Anyone...anyone? -heatherblossom
  4. Im supposed to have a meeting up at AMC to figure out if Im gonna do this. In the mean time, I thought it would be cool to try and drop a couple pounds. What the HELL was I thinking before Thanksgiving?? If anything, I have been eating more than usual. Its so... counterproductive- I find myself eating more cos Im thinking about getting the band done. WTF? Am I subcounciously trying to fail- again?? Will they let me have the surgery if I cant get weight off pre-surg?
