Ok bandsters, this is my testimony. I'm what I call a "recent fatty". I started gaining weight 9 yrs ago. For some reason, I decided not worry about my health. I stopped exercising and started eating foods I had never eaten...I call that my rebellion...Except, I don't know what the heck I was rebelling from.Now, I'm 34 yrs old, 5ft 10in at 278lbs, bmi 40 and my band date is 8/18/10! :thumbup:I have 3 co-workers who have the band, 2 of them are not happy with it, one loves it. The band is the perfect option for me bcuz I'm a "power eater". I eat about twice a day but super-large portions...if I was a "grazer", I would've chosen the bypass. (I'm glad I'm the power eater bcuz the bypass scares me).

Anyhow, I look forward to my band journey!!
