Hello Banders, I am reaching out to this group for encouragement and motivation. I've completely fell off track *sigh* The good news is I haven't gained any since being band but I should be much further than what I am today. When I started this journey I was weighing 310lbs. The lowest I've been was 250lbs. Currently I am 265lbs which is a 15lb gain. I know I can do better but I've lost the basic fundamentals of this process. Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated

Thank you Hely 88 and Arzel ... to know that there is support out there gives me that boost I need to get this done.

At Missy I was banded July 2011 which is a disappointment to myself because I know that I am the only one in control of this life changing challenge. I have re-committed myself in hope for better success over this next year.

I have been reading up on the lap band surgery but afraid that it's going to impact my chances of ever having children. I recently submitted an inquiry about the surgery to the local clinic and sure the doctor will let me know during my consultation, but I am too impatient to find out from him. Please Help

Hi Fluffy and thanks for responding. Now I have another question; what do you mean by fluids?
