It's my One Year Band Anniversary...



Recommended Posts

Wow, I can't believe it....it was one year ago today....August 17, 2005, I got my wonderful band!!! Oh, how my life has changed and I am so grateful, happy, excited and thrilled.

I want to thank everyone on LBT, from the bottom of my heart, for the support, advice and friendship you all have shown me the last year and a half. I have learned so much from all of you, mostly that I was not the only person on the face of this earth experiencing difficult times due to my weight; from not being able to fit in a booth at a restrauant to not traveling due to my weight. In other words, you guys helped me feel normal. Thank you all so very much...

As promised, I am (for the first time) posting my before pic along with my one year anniversary pic....hope it works. If it comes out too big or not side by side, hopefully one of our expert photograhers/computer wizards can help me....thanks.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
