DanaAdams 59 Posted October 8, 2012 Hey, Ya'll! My name is Dana Adams, and I am getting banded this Thursday. Tonight, I am struggling with so many emotions...I am EXCITED, happy, thrilled, nervous, scared, weepy, anxious,...you name it...I am! Oh! Forgot hungry!!! Heeee! No...really, I am not hungry. My doctor does not do the two week liquid diet that I have seen most folks do. Instead, I have been doing a low carb diet for the last two weeks. I have done fairly well...not lost a ton of weight or anything...but a little. Actually, I have been working on this weight loss thing for quite sometime. In the last six months, I have lost 42 lbs. So, I am on my way. I still have quite a bit to go, but I will make it! I know so, because God does not me to destroy the temple He has given me! I am a praying woman, and I know that there are tons of prayer warriors on here...because God has brought me HERE! So, I ask you to keep me in prayer this Thursday...throughout the day, please. I thank you all so much! In His mercy and grace, Dana Adams www.aworldwithoutweight.blogspot.com 4 DBRN1972, Terri_121, blackcadillacs5 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanaAdams 59 Posted October 16, 2012 I am doing really well! I am eating a little better...and the gas is seeming to get a little better. Still, I have tons of gas when I eat or drink.

Ya'll are THE best! 1 marketingdude reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
