Thank you for writing this ,it made me see what I never wanted to see that I was afraid.Afraid of the unknown,afraid of how things change.I don't like change I never have but now this is the thing that may have been holding me back my fear of people looking at me differently.That I won't be able to hide in a corner any more.So I am with you on this,again thank you so much for posting this.Banded on 10-22-10.

Try some almonds if you want something crunchy and filling,but make sure you get the natural one's.

Girl be proud of yourself.You have lost 100 pds. I can only imagine,and hope for the day I can say the same.Keep going because you know you can push through this.

Girl be very proud of yourself.To have lost a 100 pds. I just can't imagine,but I sure hope I can say that someday.Just push on through because you know you can do this.

That,s great news!Keep up the good work!Doesn,t it feel wonderful to see those numbers go down?

They should put something behind your ear for motion sickness.Don,t take it off for at least 3 days.I didn,t and I have never thrown up yet,also get up and move because the gas will be better the more you move.

Try eating a few almonds.They are crunchy and filling.This may help with you wanting something crunchy.Good look.

Please, please don't give up! There are other people who love you and need you to be there for them just as they are there for you.Look around you at the faces of the people you love.Do you want them to suffer the grief and the pain that you are now going through?I did't I wanted to live for them.I was banded on Oct. 25,2010. I started my preop diet on Oct.11, since then I have lost 39 pds.I feel so much better mentaly and physically than I ever have.The grief of losing someone can destroy you and your family if you let it.Try to be strong grieve for your mother,remember the love and know she would not want her child to follow her into the grave.This is from a mother who has lost a child and believe me your mother would want you to live.So take each day one at a time and try not to conquer the whole world at once and you can do this.

Try chewing sugar free gum.It helped me alot with my nighttime eating

Hang in there things will change.All for the good.

Christmas can be a very hard time of year.The stress is way up there and especially if you don't have a job,but when you feel like giving up just look at your children and see how blessed you really are.Believe me I know we lost our son six yrs. and six months ago.The holidays are extremely hard.I was eating my self to death because of my depression.I finally got a hold of my self and did the lap band after much talking to my psycoligist.If you feel depressed get help for yourself.Its out there and there is no need to suffer needlessly,and please give your children a great big hug and think how lucky you really are.

Way to go keep up the good work.Be proud of yourself.

I do not like this new web site at all either.
