In houston - banding on 7/29

Hi all -

I'm being banded soon here in the Houston area. I'm an admin by trade, but I go to school full time as well. (nothing like burning the candle at both ends.)

I've been married for 5 years to an amazing man (though a bit clurless when it comes to Weight issues) and have a stepdaughter that is the absolute light of my life. We are all a little chaotic with some very active hobbies, 2 large dogs and even my mom living with us (asian and in her late 70's) just for good measure.

I have a very diverse set of hobbies. I LOVE music and sing as often as I can (the whole student and work thing) as well as embroidery, weaving, and cooking.

I've kept my 99% of the people I know in the dark when it comes to this. I've dealt with a lot of ridicule (including from dear old mom) so I'm remaining very tight lipped. My husband, and 1 friend who has already been banded know. That is it.

I'm dealing with PCOS issues, and trying to get pregnant. (after surgery and WL) and asthma... (I'm just a mess LOL!)

Hope everyone is doing well... I look forward to hearing from you!
