Ok this is my first post. I was banded Decemebr 15th, 2.5 days ago. Still a little sore but so far not to bad. The physical part is easy, it is the mental part Im struggling with. I love to eat and not being able to is tough. Ill make it, we will all make it. Lets hold each other to that!!!

I am in New York City, that photo was in Dutchess County, about 100 miles north of the city when I went Apple picking with my friends. Its really pretty out of the city.

Wow Crisanne, I love your hair!

Thanks for the hair compliment. I have been growing it out for 3 years, and the color is from the sun in the summer here in the city. I am so worried that I am going to lose it a few months into the band. I didn't like it in the photo, so thanks so much again.

This picture was taken a few days before my surgery. I hope I learn some better poses when I lose weight. Looking forward to posting some after pictures.

Good Luck to all.

ChrisAnn - I see a Mets bag in the picture. Are you a fan? I am a big Mets fan. I live in New Jersey. Are you in the NYC metro area?

I live in Brooklyn, NY, NYC. I have a ticket plan with the Mets, but with the increase this year, and the doubt they will offer me the same package in the new stadium, this may be my last year. Had the seats for 10 years now.

This is me and my dog at Dogs Day at Shea in September.

Hi All,

Please add me the the "MERRY LOSERS" Just got my date: 12/26/2007.

Yes, Yes, Yes I know its the day after X-mas. I've eaten enough

X-Mas dinners, right???

I just want to say a big "Thank You" to everyone here. You have given me so much knowledge and information, not to mention HOPE. I know this is right for me and that I CAN do it. I look forward to getting to know you and travel this road together.

I have very supportive family/friends and look forward to starting my new life next Wednesday.:omg: But there are somethings they just don't or can't understand. That's where ya'll come in.

Anyone out there from Louisiana?? I'm from a town just West of New Orleans. Surgery at Ochsner Hospital with Dr. W. Richardson.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

My before pic was taken on Thanksgiving Day at my sons Engagement Party in Las Vegas wahooooo!

Don't get me started on the food down here! That's why I am the size I am. I also love to cook and I'm good at it.ahahhaha

Jambalaya, Gumbo, smothered anything!!!!!!!

I must stop the madness.

My husband came home this weekend with a KING CAKE.. Good lord, Mardi Gras is 2 months away:eek: Ours lives revolve around food. Catching it (big fishermen/hunters), cooking it, eating it, eating it, eating it.

How is you family dealing with your decision to have the band?
