Hello, how are u, first I got the dress from Lane Bryant (my favorite store). Surprisingly I lost the 31 lbs during my 6month required program with the surgeons office. I totally followed the diet the nutritionist gave. I could have lost more if i excercised, but i'm trying to change that now since I had the surgery. I felt the same way, i was so afraid i wouldn't be able to lose the required weight, but every time i went to my nutritionist appts i would lose more even when i thought i gained. That was a big motivator. My surgeon suggested the bypass as well, but i wanted to lose it slowly and i like me curves too, so i am ok with the band. Once those first few pounds start coming off before the surgery you will get a boost of confidence knowing that you can do it, since this is only a tool. I say go for the band, it's going to take discipline, but i say that will motivate u to keep it off.
