If you think the Lap Band is the "easy way out", you're in for a big shock. It's not, in fact it takes hard work, conviction, and determination. These boards are filled with people who failed their bands, if it was the "easy way out" then no one would ever fail.

Not sure what you mean but the Lapband, I my opinion is not a detour or an easy way out. It takes a lot of work to stay committed. If we do not do the right thing there are health consequences . We have to work hard so feel good and be thankful you have made this choice for your life. Stay strong!

Just had a no sugar added chocolate stick YUMMY

MsRhonda:You might want to use punctuation and spell-check. I think you might have some good points or at least interesting ideas. But it is hard to tell.

When im on my cell i free write so im mean thanks for the response but if u cant understand sry

Stream of consciousnesses?

the band was/is major surgery

it also will be successful if one has a major attitude change

that means, to want to get healthy bad enough that you will adhere to what it all consists of. eating better quality food, in smaller amounts and exercising....if you help the band it will help you.

True no doubt

MsRhonda, please use more punctuation. It's so hard to understand you when you "free write" and we all want to be sure we can understand you clearly. Writing on a message board, even when you're on your phone, isn't like texting. It's important to use punctuation and full words. I'm afraid some people might skip over your posts because they're hard to understand, and we don't want to miss what you say, as it's important. By the way, this message was written on my cell phone. :-)

I understand but i dont have the time when im working off my cell im a texter so if they dont understand dont comment sry that just how i feel. This takes up battery life i wont be on here for long neways to much going on here for me
