I'm not having the band anymore but I found something else

[milton5a 0]

It has taken me 2 weeks of proper thought to come to the conclusion that I just don't have enough confidence to go through with the operation.

I cancelled the pre-op today and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from me.

I would like to praise all the ladies/men that have gone through with the operation and have achieved excellent results!

However I have found something else that seems to be working for me. I read Paul McKenna's I can make you thin. It is very helpful because it doesn't tell you what to eat etc... It's all about the brain and your eating. Well I am very happy and I can't wait to weigh myself in 2 weeks time.

Anyway I wish you all the best.

Peace & Love

I wish you all the luck in the world! Thanks for mentioning the book, I have some head work to do around eating, perhaps I'll order it. I take it that it is a UK author?

Lauren, At your young age, I'm glad you are willing to make more attempts at losing the weight without such a drastic step as surgery.

At my age, ( 56) I knew I had made many attempts at weight loss without succeeding, so the band felt like my last/only option.

I hope the message in the book is one that resonates with you and you have great success.

Good Luck.

If you don't feel you are ready for this huge step, you are absolutely doing the right thing by not rushing into things. If you aren't ready, it won't work.

Good luck to you!
