Maytee Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I know for me, seeing other people's success really helped me. I didn't post on here for a long time, because I thought I was doing such a horrible job with this whole band thing. I went over a year without losing ONE SINGLE POUND!! Talk about struggling. Gradually, seeing other's success...I knew I could do this. I just had to get back on the right track. I get so excited to see other people losing weight and to hear how its changing their lives. Living down in the middle of nowhere, I have no support system. It has finally occurred to me that this forum can be a great source of support, if I'll let it. The truth is...we are all connected in our struggles with obesity. I know I've posted my story to offer encouragement. My weight loss didn't happen overnight. I didn't get the band and then "POOF", I got skinny. I think we all go into this thinking that is the way it should happen...and for some, it does. For me, it didn't happen that way...and I still have a ways to go. I look forward to seeing many more pics and stories of success. We all CAN do this!! Kris! I would love for you to post your story again. For all of us that recently got banded it would be a great testimony to the band and you.

WAgal Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 It doesn't bother me at all, actually it makes me smile and try to do better!! :lb25: I too am staying the same since I started real food, I don't think I'm over eating, but have made some bad choices. I learned some lessons, from my mistakes and from the mistakes of my fellow bandsters and am forging ahead. :lb16:PS I LOVE THIS FORUM!! Hey! I love your little exercising maniac on the treadmill!!! It made me laugh!!! How cute is that!! That's probably what I look like when I exercise!!! LOL!! Hanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
