Hi! This is my first post and I just want to say I love all the support everyone is giving each other I'm new to this whole lapband process/community. My very dear friend from high school had lapband surgery over Thanksgiving and she has already lost 45 lbs. I'm so proud of her. I have been venting to her about my weight loss struggles and as a result she has turned me on to this website. I lost 120 lbs just by working out and eating better.... i'm still a morbidly obese (I hate that phrase) person and i can't seem to lose anymore... i have been struggling with this for 4 years. I would love to hear why all of you decided to have the lapband surgery.

Yes... i totally understand.... our heads are out to get us sometimes. I have given up most sweets... but during the holidays i made Christmas Cookies with my niece (huge mistake) everytime i would pick up a cookie i would feel so much guilt... take one bite and hand it off to my boyfriend... haha! I have dropped so many bad habbits that i had before i decided to get healthy and i still can't seem to lose any more weight... very frustrated! Thanks B-52 for your response!
