  1. I was banded on 7/7. I lost 14lbs in the begining. Since then i have been putting the ounds back on. I cant eat as much as i could and i dont eat alot of the things i use to. But something i can eat. Im afraid that im gonna fail at this. My first fill is on wednesday so i hope it helps me with my weight.

  3. I am getting really depressed. I’m starting my road to surgery. I have a consult schedule in 2weeks. I have already reached it and I even went on youtube and saw the whole surgery. So getting a consult is point less but protocol is protocol. I found out that with my insurance I would have to pay 600 to get my surgery done. That really upset me because I would have to push it back 21/2 months. I just want to get it done because im getting sick and tired of being a whale. I see everybody’s before and after pics and they look great and I can’t wait till it’s me. My best friend is getting married in September and I didn’t want to look like I did in my sisters wedding pics. I found myself very attractive and I think its weight that makes me very insecure. I am in a very deep depression. I have nice hair and it was long and now I just keep in a ponytail because it broke off so bad. I haven’t got my eyebrows down in a while I just want to break free of the feeling I’m I the only one feeling this way?:willy_nilly:
