This year and for the past 3 I did not have to make a New Tears Resolution to lose weight. Ever since I can remember I entered every New Years wishing I was thin and planning my diet . And every year I failed .

Now with my Lap Band I don't have to do that ever again. Food is still something I eat but it has been replaced as my comforter and go to thing. I am finally free and I"m lovIng it. And my wish for all of you that you all can feel this way soon.

If it were easy it wouldn't be so special , It was the best thing I ever did for myself and I want it for all of you. BEING THIN IS BETTER THEN ANYTHING I EVER ATE. And it last alot longer. HAPPY NEW YEAR may it be your best one ever.

I can relate! This is the first time ever that I didn't gain weight over the holidays. I can't wait to see where I am next New Year's Eve! I wish you continued success.

Exactly what I needed! I am scheudled for Jan 23rd and couldnt be more excited...cheers to a real New Years resolution, for once!!

Hi Mayasgram, wondering where you were.

In the past I never made a resolution b/c I knew I would break it, why bother.

This year I'm so excited. Still not going to make resolution, but not b/c of past failure, but b/c I know I already have what it takes to succeed.YAY!

I too, want everyone to succeed with their bands. So may everyone have a healthy, happy 2013!

All these posts made me emotional. I was banned 12/17....it just hit me how profound this is.

BEING THIN IS BETTER THEN ANYTHING I EVER ATE. And it last alot longer. HAPPY NEW YEAR may it be your best one ever.

I couldnt agree more.... NOTHING tastes as good as thin feels!! happy New year!!!

I agree with you all. I went to the gym this afternoon and for the first year in life I will not be joining a gym as a New Year's resolution. Going to the gym is just what I do. Happy New Year All!!
