Oh well, at least I will be doing it for me not him... I am frustrated... 1 more month I am giving myself to see how I do on my own. I know this morning I took the kids to a community pancake breakfast for winter carnival and I ate 3 pancakes, 2 sausages and hasbrowns with no problem. I am suprised I wasn't even feeling full at that point in time. ..... oh my god.. I will say that it stayed with me until 3:30 this afternoon, and we ate at 8:30.

keep in touch and let us see some more progress on your weight loss.

thanks for the support. I sure am not getting too much here. I was at the gym today and my son did not want to stay, so after walking 1 mile we decided to leave. I was going to go back later today, but after hockey and a free skate it was 5:00pm and I just go home. I wasn't home all day and I just wanted to sit and do nothing, so Steve, my husband, decided to lecture me that I was not motivated enough.... .I was so made. I could have hit him. I told them it would be nice some moral support and encouragement from him, and that I have been at the gym a fair bit with no support from him. He doesn't help much with the kids. I am getting so frustrated.

We decided to have our own seperate bank accounts because I was tired of him bitching to me about spending money. SO if I decide to go ahead with this surgery I will do it with my own money which is perfect..... but I know he will be watching everything that goes in my mouth.

I am a 34 year old working mom. I have 2 kids that are 6 and 7 (grade 1 and 2). I work with family. I have been struggling with my weight my whole life. I was always the cubby kids. I have done various things throu out my weight loss fight. I even resorted to taking laxatives for a year, which inturn caused me to have IBS and a spastic large bowl. I did loose 40 lbs,, but gained that back and more.

I want to be able to look in the mirror at myself, and feel good about what I see instead of getting totally disgusted. I have never liked what I saw.

I have been researching the slimband/lapband for a few years. I am sure this is the procedure for me. I just have to convience someone (my other half) which has never had a fat day in his slim life. He doesn't think it should be the difficult to loose weight. ..... ohhh to have that his problem having to worry.
