I had serious misconceptions about this realize band. I thought this would be too easy to do, but its not and now I am grateful. iam having to pay very close attention to what I eat and drink and I am learning to get in touch with my body/mind connection again. I think I am grateful that this is much slower than I had originally anticipated. i even gained 4 pounds,but my clthes are fitting looser. I have even had to buy new ones. This is a lifetime of change and I see that now.

My first time at losing weight was when I was 8 years old. I was send to a weight loss center with prepackaged meals and the kids at school would make fun of me because I had to eat that instead of the normal food. The cycle never ended. I finally said enough and had my gastric band on Oct 21, 2009. My husband is very supportive. The rest of my family is slowly coming around.
I have begun this journey not knowing where it will take me, but I have already lost 15 pounds in a month which is more than I could have ever done on my own.
