    Soon to be Banded... VERY nervous!

    Rachelle, thanks for the reply. What I am proposing is helping you with getting your bloodsugar levels down before your surgery, because it is hard to do the liquid diet for those 6 days if you don't prepare a little. I use to have bad will power also. I know what you mean.

    Bad news from my doctor

    Hi cookielover. Wow, I am glad I read your post. I have learned a lot in the last 2 years. I use to be 20 lbs over weight. I was a gymnast and was always looking for ways to loose weight. I found a way 10 years ago by eating "low glycemic foods". It was not that hard once I decided to try it. The first 5 days were a little hard, but not as hard as other diets I tried. You get to eat enought food to keep from being hungry, you just don't eat foods that raise your blood sugar high. I lost my 20 lbs, and my husband lost 30. My friend lost 50 doing this 2 years ago and all of us have kept the weight off. Email me and I can explain the details to you. You can do it!!!! I would love to help you and encourage you. It is easier than you think. The great thing is that it doesn't cost much to do and you will feel great. My email is armsfamily@comcast.net

    Hi Rachelle. I know it is hard to pay out of your own pocket, but it seems that it will be worth it. Are you going ahead with the surgery? I have found a way to lose weight by eating low-glycemic foods. It is kinda new to the public, but there are books written about it now. If you would like some more info, you can email me at armsfamily@comcast.net. I would be glad to give you an alternative to surgery. You are young and have time to try other things. Realize that most Americans are addicted to "bad carbohydrates". Once you break your sugar addiction (which takes 5 days usually), it gets easier. My friend lost over 50 lbs and looks great now. My husband lost 30 lbs in 3 months and he was only 30 lbs over weight. I want to encourage you that you can lose the weight, with or without the surgery. Which ever way you choose, I would love to talk with you about it.
