Hello....

A year ago today I was banded.....and it has been the best thing I have ever done for myself and my family...It gave me back happiness that I didnt even know I was missing....now simple pleasures are getting dressed and not needing to sit down and rest...bending over tieing my shoes...wearing pants with zippers....buckelting my seat belt....fitting into a resturant booth...wanting to walk every day...loving how proud my husband and family are of me....not feeling like every one is looking at me as I walk into a room saying WOOO look how big she is....Having so much energy now.....

Last year I was so ready to get this done I left for the hospital extra early and my sister and I went to the local park and I walked a mile before going into the hospital....I was determined I was going to do it and d it right....I just want to thank everyone on this furum that has given me words of encouragement..when it got tough....and looking back to some differant storys I have read on here....let me tell you some times some one writes about a difficult time they are having...and I can remember and I thank who ever it was that basiclly told me to suck it up...I thought I wanted some one to say...oh yes you poor thing I understand.....but they didnt....they told me JUST DO IT.....and I was a lil taken back for a day or so.....BUT...I knew they were right so here I am a yr later...120 lbs gone !!!!
