Hello From Minnesota~

[Warfield24 1]

Well I've been banded for almost 2 years now. Sounds really weird and sad to say that. I'd lost almost 90lbs by the end of my first year and i've gained 40 of it back. My mother passed away at the begining of last year, and not to lay blame or make excuses but I wasn't really paying attention to my self as much because of that. After she passed there was a lot going on, moving, planning the services, I only have one brother here in Mn (Whom I moved in with after this happened). So a lot of all the after fell on me, then I lost my job midway through the year and finishing school (Graduated in December 2011) I just didn't have the needed focus. I was clogging a lot and have problems getting tighter than 3.75cc's every time I've gone above that I've clogged. Just before the new year I went to my dr because I couldn't even keep down Water and he unfilled me half way.

So I have deicded that now is the time, no work, no school I have no excuse not to work out, and eat right. Just here to find support, food ideas (which is my down fall), and maybe if there are any Minnesotan's a new friend!

Thanks!

Hi from Northern MN! Sounds like you have a new resolve to get to a healthier you. I would love a new fiend to go through this process with. I am about 5 hours from you but we do travel to the cities on occasion to see family.
