How about they were literally about to put the mask on me and I freaked out and said NO I can't do this......all I kept thinking about was omg i'm going to be starving for the rest of my life...I know that sounds crazy but I was so scared of everything and let me tell you here it is 2 months later and I am scheduled for surgery on Oct 31st. I regretted not going thru with it...I kept beating myself up trying to figure out what to do. OMG the emotions were out of control and I think mainly because I was on liquids for 3 days and was STARVING, weak, and just wanted to EAT. It's 4:52 am and I am wide awake thinking about this surgery. I am more excited than nervous this time around but i'm still scared....I don't know what is right for me, but I do know that I need to do something and can only pray that this tool will let me break out of this lifestyle and into a new healthier, skinnier me Good luck to you and I know you will make the right descion....it's all about you and thats what I am also learning thru all this...I need to do ME!!!! I'm still scared tho lol

I have notice my sex life has gottten better

Before you give up on the band, try the 5 day band test, (look it up on Google) it just might get you back on track. If you know you're chewing enough and doing everything else correctly, maybe you need a slight unfill. It's worth thinking about.

November 22nd!! I'm nervous but excited. I just sent a facebook request! - Renee

I guess you're doing great! You're going to have to carry bricks in your pocket to keep from being blown away.

I haven't been banded yet, but one thing I have learned is that you must be willing to work with band to lose the weight. If I had any doubts, I would back out as well. Getting this close to surgery and putting a stop to it took quite a bit of courage. I'm sure that you will find the right solution for you. good luck!

Just wanted to share a victory with you all... Well I met my 1st goal... So about 3 wks I turned on my Wii game n went thru my past weigh-ins on Wii Fit. I was so shocked when I discovered that I was 42lbs lighter back in February 2011. It sometimes seems so unrealistic that we can gain weight that fast. Well, on that same day 3wks ago when I wanted to see how much I had gained... so stepped on the Wii Fit Board & my heart sank when I was told I was over the weight limit for the Wii Board (330lbs maximum weight) & the computer asked me to step off the board. Well, I'm down 13.9lbs n the Wii Board is No Longer Rejecting Me!!! So excited!!! Might not seem like much but to me it was the best thing ever!!! So overly excited to finally be moving forward with-in my Journey #ThisIsOnlyTheBeginning

Welcome back. Congratulations for getting your groove back.

Welcome back and kudos for taking charge of your health. I hope you become an active poster and share your wealth of knowledge. Mimi

Cheri I am not going to continue this conversation with you because it is ridiculous that you must keep it going. Do what is best for you and everyone the same I was not trying to scare anyone I dont see any post that point that out. Its so sad that you have nothing more to do than badger posters of which I have seen more than once from you just because you dont agree with them. Move on its not that deep really it isnt.
