I love my band too!
In December it will be 3 yrs for me started at 260 and down to 195 clothes sizes went from size 22- size 14 some size 12s. Still 40lbs from my goal and for the most part I'm enjoying the journey!
just eat some sugar free chocolates like SF reese peanut butter cups... 5 of them are only 1 net carb. anytime I start feeling constipated I go to walgreens and get some and it straightens me out.. plus they are delish!
hey there, how are you doing on your journey?
My day is approaching, my surgery date is 12/13. Not everyone in my congregations knows, but most do, the ones that I am around the most.

JUST HOLD ON!
remember the race is not given to the swift(how fast we lose)
nor is the battle given to the strong(when we cant seem to get over temptation hurdles).
But the reward is given to the one that endures... so girl friend, never give up. just keep doing what you know is right to do...
on thanksgiving, eat really slow and off of salad plates. thats what I intend to do and I'm not even banded yet. ( Dec 13th is my date)
I agree wit Loretta's comment above.
Love ya sis and I'm praying for ya
Wow we gonna be band-twins!... thats my date as well, my surgery is at 8:30am... when is yours? hahaha who will be the oldest...
we even weigh just about the same right now... my pre op testing is this thursday.
I pray all goes well with you!
so happy to be rearranging my closet, knowing that all the clothes that I wore last summer, I wont be wearing next summer, so I am bagging up all items that are 2x to give away. Yay!!!
PTL sis.. I am a pastor's wife and you are right about that we do have our own special challenges we must hold one another up in prayer... does your congregation know? and are you in ministry ( platform ) as well... being the wife of a pastor is a ministry in itself!
