Hang in there.......sounds like you are on the right track. I'm two days out from being banded so, I may be leaning on you in a week........but, from the classes I went to I was advised to make a "ME" basket or any type of container and put things in it that you like; CD's, Movies, Books, etc. -- that way when you are feeling uncertain the idea is to go to your ME basket and trigger that feeling of being satisfied........
