She actually looked really skinny and here I am losing 59 in little over a year I am discouraged it took alot of time to get proper restriction it feels that I have not done well I wanted to lose 100 in a year I am feeling that I made the wrong decision does anyone feel the same please reply

WOW what a great attitude.You can only succeed.Thanks for giving me prospective.

Bottom line is ITS YOUR CHOICE everyone can give only their side of what they did and thats what they did...............Good luck in your decision

I sometimes too wish I could lose more & faster than 1 pound a week. But just last thursday as I sat at my support group I was reminded that I made the correct desicion for me. Because I was the only one there w/the band the rest were all GB & their hair was well..... one was wearing a wig & all the other ladies young & old had such horribly thin hair. I am so happy that I do not. I know that is very vain but I guess I am vain or I wouldn't have cared about losing weight in the first place.

I'll drink to that!!

No at all "I LOVE MY BAND"

BANDED NOV 8 2005 286 POUNDS

OH YES!!!

I am very angry. I have been dealing with a lot of anger and depression, to the point I am not fighting the urge to diet harder and eat only empty items void of anything. No carbs no fat no nothing.

I have about 50 pounds I want to loose to my personal goal. I have lost almost 18 and am so damned determined it is scarry.

My sister had RNY and lost 112 pounds in 8 mths. I am the one that told her about this and she got her ins to approver her sooner.

My FIL and so many others are watching me as they want to have surgery, but not something to radical as RNY, so I feel A LOT of pressure on top of it all.

Yeah, I am screwed in the head. I know. But I think I am some what copeing. Sorda.
