Just wanted to say hello. And to talk about how important it is to make time

in are busy lifes with kidds family & Jobs. To make time for are selfs...........even

an half hour a day will make a big change in ones attitude and health.It will take some time to notice but it will happen.

Also don't for get your Water. It will help your muscles and your thirst and help with flushing your system out!

It is recommend to walk 10.000 steps a day. That is 5 miles I' believe.

but it will take some time for a lot of people because we are not all athletes.

Some are in better shape then other, but we are all on this site to lose weight

with the same goal some banded some of us that aren't.

I myself enjoy this site because of all the encouragement that people Give. well take care God bless!

Hey jq! Are you ever going to get banded? It seems odd at first if you are not at least planning on the surgery, to be here and getting encouragement. And giving it! But it makes sense, really. Even banded, it's just a tool to help you do all the things needed to get and keep the weight off. Sure makes it a little easier for the long haul, having that little band, but we are all going through the weight loss thing together. I always like your reminders, good thoughts and encouragement. So, thanks!

I searched the web for Docters for hours and drove over four hours to clinic

and sat through 3 hour orientation in Green bay wis, all to find out that my Insurence would not cover it. It would cover the Gastric bypass but thats all.

I could lie and say I live in Minnesota they do it in deer river MN.One hundred

miles away.......It was so tempting! It would be Lie and could be considered

fraud..........

I would love to have been banded but eather way you still have to work at your weight loss.

Buy eating right and Excercise.

Thats why I never got banded. But most of all God bless every one!

Jq even if you never get your band I wish you great success in the fight for your health. You sound like you have a great outlook on your weight issue and your not giving up. I for one want to say thank you for your reminders because band or no band these suggestions must be included in each of our lifestyles to be a success no matter if you have had WLS or not so thank you for remembering us here on LBT.Good luck to you and also have you thought of doing self pay to get your band or is that out of the question?
