HI, My lap band surgery was Jan. 2005. By the end of 2006, I had gone from 256 lbs. to 150. I have had some of my own trials and tribulations but have seem to have finally come up with a diet that allows me to feel good and not feel as though I am missing out on anything. Personally I am trying to get to about 140 purely for vanity. I'm into a size 6 which I still can't believe. Its the best when clothing fits season to season. I have spoken at different classes to help others get on track and stay motivated. If I can help, I would love to help. Dolly

Pat, Great work on your beginning! You must be following the diet very well. If you end up trying something that doesnt agree with you at first look at the situation you were in while eating. Stress at work, home, kids, etc. seem to make a difference. People tend to eat faster under stress. Congratulations on starting the healthy phase of your life. Dolly
