SHANDY 0 Posted October 10, 2007 Hi, My name is Shandy. I am 28 years old. I will be 29 in January. I got the band in December 2006 by Dr. Spiegel. I have not had much success yet, but it is my own fault. I havn't been faithful to the diet. I am an insulin dependent diabetic so I get frustrated very quickly because my diabetes seems to make it difficult to stick to the diet and when I mess up I seem to give up all together. I just got my 4th fill so hopefully I can stay on track this time. I have only lost 15lbs since December 2006, but I need to lose 80lbs. Heres to staying on track!

SHANDY 0 Posted October 11, 2007 Thanks. That's true, at least I haven't gained the weight back. Thanks for reminding me. That makes me feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jetti 2 Posted October 11, 2007 hey I am glad you are feeling better!! losing weight is one battle and not gaining it back is another!! you have already beat both of those battles and now just push yourself a little more and I am sure the weight with start to fall off and stay off!!!
