It has been a LONG time...

Wow it has been so long since i have been on here ...I only know about  one other person ....well I guess i am eady to get back in the race and start making everything that i have had done work for me .....

I am going for my first fill in almost two years on Saturday and i am so excited ....just some FYI...Tow years ago i started to get sick and it took them about 6 month to figuer out it was my GB ....and then it took another 6 months to get to eating normal again.  Well then my mom passed away and i went into emotional shutdown and started to stress eat ...and needless to say i have gained 30 pounds .....and now i am READY to get it back off and not be able to eat the amounts i can now ......I am doing WW just to control my healthy eating and all but still i am eating too much and never full ...And that is why and were my band comes in ...So i know it is time to get it filled and get back on the lapband wagon ....And i am hoping even though i do not know most of you ...that i might be able to get some support from you all ...I will need with since my husband is in Iraq right now .....so it is me and cats at home LOL ......

Welcome back Laura and good luck.  I am pre-op (lap band too) but I've often heard soo many of the post op banders say that one of the big pluses of the band is the ability to get a few start... Again I say good luck and if you need to talk just holla at me back channel.

I just wanted to say hello and wish you luck!!

Hi Laura,
Welcome back!  I live in Covington but work in Conyers ( where I lived for nearly 30 years).  I'm sure you will do great with your fill.
Good luck!

Laura,

It has been a LONG time. I hate it you've been through so much, but getting back on track is the key. I myself am hitting the band wagon, as I had started eating lots of chocolate and carbs. I've been for the most part Sugar FREE and low carb for about a month now, no changes in weight  but hey atleast I know I'm doing the right thing.  Best of luck and keep me posted.

Glad you are back.  You will do Great.

You are in my Prayers.
