hello everyone !!!

Im Stephanie and im just starting the process on getting the lap band. i have always been big but when i had my twins it just got out of control. im a chef so that does not help b/c i eat b/c i love food :hungry: the taste, smell,feel. i dont eat b/c im sad i just love food. i have a great husband who doesnt care how big i am but of course would love a skinny wife:rolleyes: . im so tired ofthe word fat. people talking about being fat everyday its FATFATFATFAT. i want to be around for my kids and having blood pressure problems at the age of 23 isnt good. so thats why im going to get the lap band and would love anything you have to say about it.

Welcome to LBT! I'm sure it is very difficult being around food all the time. I wouldn't be able to do it.:faint: Best of luck to you! Let us know when your surgery is.

Welcome to lapband talk forum. I love being banded. You will do fine. You will fine with good restriction you can still enjoy all the foods just less of them. Good luck.

Hi Stephanie and welcome to LBT! I was banded on 1/30/07 and am doing great! It was one of the best things that I have done for myself. Best of luck to you! Gigi
