Hi, I'm 36 from Boston Ma with 100lbs to lose. Is there anyone out there that wants to chat? -Kim

Hello All, My name is Kim and I am a 36 yr old female from Boston. Like so many people I have tried soooo many diets and fads and of course they don't last. Right now I weigh 270 and I'm 5'7. I hope to have VSG in February!! But I need major help. I cannot stop eating right now, even though I feel full I cannot stop putting something in my mouth it is sooooooo gross!! Am I going to fail once I have VSG? I need to talk to someone!! I have no motivation to exercise either!! Any advice out there?? -Kim

I think I am going nuts..........All I think about is having the VSG done. I can't wait til February!! Anyone with any info would be great!! 36F Boston with 90lbs to lose at least. -Kim

I'm sold!! LOL!!

Hello all fellow Bostonians!! Starting the VSG process @ Salem Hospital in Salem, Ma! Any advice out there!!! North of Boston here 36yr old!! -Kim

Anyone have Lap Band surgery at Salem Hospital?? I'm just starting the process and want to meet people in my area. -Kim

Hi, So I've started therapy because at my psych eval she thought it would be a good idea. So I went today and the therapist does not think I am ready to have lap band in April. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH crazy!! So now I don't know what to do. It has got me thinking but I have no other options and I really wanna lose this weight! Any advice out there??? What would u think or do?? -Kim

No, it's nothing that is getting sent to the surgeon but just knowing she thinks I'm not ready gets me thinking. -Kim

Does anyone have any names for good tasting high in Protein Protein Bars for pre Lap band or after??? -Kim

Hi, Thinking of doing Nutrisystem instead of going through with LBS. Any thoughts or opinions out there?? Scared about surgery and scared to fail and be fat forever!! -Kim

All I want to say is thank you for posting this! My mom gives me the death card daily about my plans for LBS in March! I've been feeling guilty but am ready to move on and do this for me and my family!! -Kim

Well Hi, Hamilton, Ma here and in the process of lap band with Dr. Bernard Benedetto @ Salem Hospital! SAY HI!! -Kim

How did it go? I'm new and starting out as well. I saw my surgeon last week and I am very excited to continue this journey even though their will be negative backlash I have to look out for ME!! -Kim

Scared to be a failure lap band statistic. How can I prevent this? Surgery not scheduled yet. -Kim

Hi, How has someone dealt with no support at home before, during and after their lap band?? I'm in a very unsupportive spot!! 2nd guessing my decision. Please shed some insight!! -Kim

I can relate. Hubby is ok with the surgery but my mom and dad are not. I have not told anyone else. I know nobody matters but me but support would be nice. -Kim

Thanks for your insight! -Kim

How common is it to have band slippage when coughing or vomitting? That really scares me! Anyone opt to have GBS instead or just took your chances with lap band?? -Kim
