:hurray: Hi all! I am getting banded April 1 in Monterrey Mexico by Dr. Rambaut. I have been thinking about this for more than a year. I weigh 255 and am 42 BMI. Its so excieting to me to get going. I thought I would introduce myself here. I have 2 friends that I know had great success with the band and I want this to work with me in my battle of the buldge!
I wasnt always fat. As a youth I could eat alot. I was also always out ridding my bike climbing trees playing dodgeball ect... NOW I am not active. I do work full time in sales and on my feet most of the day but that doesnt cut it as far as burning off anything. I love food and Im particular about what I eat. I usually go for the stuff with the most flavor (and Calories). I snack at night. I know this is comming to an end and Im feeling anxious. I look forward to feeling restriction to shut off the physical feeling. Right now I feel like my gluttony is comming to an end. I know WE ALL WISH we could eat whatever we wanted and still loose weight but thats not the case so here we are!
I find it so inspiring, you all here for one another! I am so glad I found this site. :confused:
