Hi newbie here.... banded ny

[jollygreen1955 0]

Hi

I had myself banded 2 years ago, It was great lost 50 lbs never had a fill but had a mamo... and they thought i had cancer which i did not... well the testing took close to 6 months... the anxiety gave me somehitng that i do not want to post...bloody problem...finally they said i was ok... but had to take care of the problem... then had other family issues.

Well, would have gone back to doctor and told him but I was so ashamed and one family member told me I was fatter than before,,,b&tch but should have listened to my heart,

MY DH who says he is happy that I am banded just said you gained...was not thrilled when i went back..

So, went back last week and already lost 5 lbs....so whose the happy camper.

My goal is to lose 25 lbs by the 18th when i visit my lapband doctor (Dr Richard Pucci) becasue then I will be at the point where i was before I fell off the wagon.

Please note that during that time I did watch what I ate and did not drink the Water NOR did not exercise...the simple rule is what goes in plus calories burned equal less fluff,,,lol

I am now 298 weighing in at the support group...it is possible that the scale is off...so lets say 300 lbs,

My personal goal is 180 lbs because I am tall, and 54 years young. At that time, I can see if I need more to loose.

I am married to my Dh, my soul mate and we have a 16 year old son. Presently, I have high blood pressure, asthma, sleep apnea...so I guess a mess.

WAIt for the day when my boody is not following me :blushing:

I copied the code from the ticker web site and pasted it in the text box in signature section. If you have problems, let me know and I'll try to walk you through it.
