[lachica39 0]

I'm checking off the days on my calender. I will be attending my senimar on the 4th, the first step, I'm getting excited, learning as much as I can.

My friend is having by-pass surgery this friday, she is excited, everyone tells me not to waste my time with the lapband and to have gastric by-pass, that I wont lose that much weight. but I know this is the best option.

I have my first seminar too on October 2. It's going to be a long road, but one I'm very willing to travel.

Hey lachica 39- I was banded the end of August & will have my 1st fill the day you have your surgery & my friends said the same to me about having the B-pass instead but I don't want the worry of something irrversable as well as dumping on myself while I'm giving an important work presentation.. I haven't lost much weight yet but that will all begin after my fill in Oct. & I hoep to lose 50lbs by Dec. and then 70 by March so I'll keep you posted on how I do. I do exercise a lot though. There is another website where I've been getting great support from people -better than here so I'll give you it now Info on the Lap Band weight loss surgery - Weight Loss Alternatives<br /> Good luck to you & you made the right decision Steph!
