  9. Melinda you are so right the quick fix and just thinking the band is going to lose the weight for you is in for a rude awaikning like you said its a tool you have to work with it !
  10. it already looks like your going to do wonderful youve got the right attitude and deturmined and your already loosing weight your on the right track with your journey! people that havent been in your shoes dont understand the aspects of it they ! its not all about getting skinny its so more then that and they dont understand and i know with me yes we all want to be skinny but realistically we want to feel better and live a healthier life and you are already focused and ready to roll ! cngrats and you are going to do wonderful and you will have some bumps on the way but if you can get over those bumps its all good good luck and God Bless

    Its Crazy

    i was sitting here tonight thinking of different things that affected my body when i weighed 441lbs and i was looking at the bottom of my bare feet and i know this is winter and everybody has dry feet but i can remember when my feet would hurt so bad and they were cracked horribley and would bleed and now there just dry and they look better then what they use to ! i know there's people that feet grosses them out and im sorry but its things like that when you get the weight off that every part of your body gets better ! im sorry if that was a boring blog i just had to share cause i was thinking about it and maybe you have went through it to!

    WOW I can do that

    I haven't blog in awhile so here it goes! I am feeling so good right now I'm doing things that I couldn't do a year ago such as I took my kids to the zoo when I was at my heaviest and seriously thought I was going to die because of the hills and it was not enjoyable for me because I couldn't hardly breath my legs hurt and I wanted to go home but I stuck it out because it wasn't about me it was about my kids I've since then I've lost a lot of weight and went back to the zoo last weekend ! Now on a mental note I've still have more weight to loose and my skinny sister in law that weighs about 120lbs was with me and I was out doing her in the walking the hills "hehehe" and I wasn't out of breath at all my legs didn't hurt and I was having a good time with my kids I think I even could of done another round lol! Its those kinds of things I look back that I couldn't do that I can now . I'm a hairdresser something I love doing I had to stop because I couldn't take being on my feet anymore since I've lost the weight I'm back to doing it again ! I'm a happier mom because I play out in the yard with my kids and run ! I'm fighting the battle of the bulge and I'm winning this war !

    Please Help

    I have had my band since dec 29th 2010 and it was all going good until 2 weeks ago I started getting sick and throwing up then I started with acid reflex well the throwing up finally stopped and and the acid reflex continued then I started having extra saliva coming up! Then last saturday I started throwing up and haven't been able to eat solid foods and I called my doctor and he ordered a upper GI and I had it done today and the doctor called and wants me to come up first thing in the morning! I'm fearing that it has slipped but praying its not and its nothing that big cause I love being banded cause I've done so well! Please can someone help ?
