please keep in mnd i do eat healthy and im not crazy just looking at my options . i have been gaining at least 1 pnd a month for the last 3 yrs . im not over weight becouse im always on a diet . im so tired of not hvn control over my weight.

im 5'2 and i know im not over weight right now becouse i am on diet but i hve been gaining like 1 pnd a month regardless . i dnt eat crappy food only on special ocasions like a piace of cake om MYbirthday . the only reason why im not over weiht is becose i dedicate my self to loosing weight so i dnt realy now how what else to do ... one pnd a month will add up if i dnt fgr out what to do now:sad:

please tell me more:thumbup: i think you have the best advice so far !!! what do ppl that have the lap band do ?how small are the portions and how many time a day u eat? maybe i can just act like i have it or try to anyways.

i have tryd every diet its just not working anymore my body seems to just want to store everything as fat. i work at the olive garden and dnt even eat their 85% of my diet is white meat ,fish ,toffu and fresh steamd veggies . im just realy tired of not knowing exactly how to prevent gaining weight

:ohmy:ok i can tell you are complitly against me even looking up this type of information . it does scare me becouse i go back and forth on my weight i keep 4 different size jeans folded just in case and no my famiily has no real medical problems just realy bad attitudes and self estem isues and im sorry you do have med problems that prevent you from being your ideal non horrific weight ... so you wher a happy person when you wher overweght thats good but i dnt see my self being happy and maibe counseling is what a need i will keep that im mnd as an OPTION thanks

thank you i realy think you understand were im coming from:thumbup:

how old wher you when you first started to gain weight? what if you could have done something about it . im just looking at my options , i will try my best to control what and how i eat .

thank you all for your replys its nice to see that you guys dnt think its stupid for me to consider the lap band as an option. i will look up all pro and cons . the fear of becoming over weight is stressing me out becouse of my family history once they gaind the weight they never lost it .
