My children range from 35 to 7 and honesly the 6 yr old was the easist....and most fun...I showed my younger ones pictures of the band...after I explained I needed to make my bellie smaller...the 35 yr old...wanted to know why at my age I cared about how I looked...I told him it was so much more then looks...now they are all my biggest cheerleaders....

laughs you cant fool aunt flo !!! how about sugar free fudcicals... and I love the SF Jello pudding too

Thats to bad your Drs office isnt mor informitive with you.... If you have a appt for a fill tomarrow my Dr tells me nothing for 2 hrs beforw my appt....best of luck !

Sandy.. I think all your fears and thoughts are normal.... I know I had all the same thoughts....I was thinking Im doing this to have a better life and be around for my children but in the back of my head....I was thinking omg what if I dont come out of this and then I leave my children now.....lets say the week befor banding I had my house in order....Im sure my family thought I just wanted it picked up so it be easyier when I came home....but it was more then that...Good Luck

I am at 9 ccs in a 11 cc band....and I know Im in the green !!! It feels so good not to be thinking of food all the time... Heck before when I use to diet...and even when I wasnt in the green...I was finished with one meal and wondering what I could have for my next....

~hugs~ 11 lbs doesnt sound so bad..but i can imagine its a scarie thought to feel out of control again... When Im feeling like that first thing in the morning I fill my Water bottle a special bottle that is just mine ! holds 4 cups..and I drink maybe half of it asap....and then I carry it with me all day long.... when ever I feel a lil hunger...or a lil head hunger...i swig and swig....it really does help motivate me.....and I come here and read lots.... Good Luck...I think your doing wonderful.....~hugs~
