Life with the Band

Well I have had the band for a few years now. I feel that I have hit my goal. I do need to work out more. I don't get more than a few walks a day with my 4 dogs and the stairs a few times at work. My fiance, who I have been with for 6 year this June, has gotten use to my eating habits. He is a big eater. We use to love to order pizzas, Chinese Food, and all sorts of junk food and eat every bit. He has gotten over having to explain to Servers when they ask if there is anything wrong with the food. We still go out to eat, we just stay away from the buffets now. I wish they would let me pay kid price. I have learned my limits, but I still have days that easy things to eat, are not.   I want to say that I have heard people in my life say that they regret getting the surgery. There is not a day that I get up and know that I am healthier and happier. :tt1:I LOVE MY BAND!!!:thumbup:

Wow!!!

Wow!!! I guess I should have played with some of the features of this forum. I didnt realize that we had a journal feature. I am so happy. I have kept a journal since I was old enough to write. I am glad that I can have one seperate just for my Lap Band Journey. Will post more later!!!
