Is anyone from Lansing / Leavenworth area that would like to go walking around town or at the school football fields or workout together? I have a membership at the Anytime Fitness also.

 I have been a member for awhile and debated off and on. I live in Salina and I am seriously considering lap band surgery. I weigh about 315 pounds and I am miserable. I want to have more energy and be able to play with my children and I want to see them grow up and get married and be able to play with my future grandchildren. I don't even know where to start on this journey. There isn't anyone in Salina that performs this type of surgery and I don't know where to go or even what I need to do at this point. I'm scared as well. I know it would be better for my family if I lost weight but I am scared that something will go wrong and I will leave my family without me. Anyone out there that can offer some advice?

I had my 1 yr anniversary on June 3 and saw my surgeon yesterday.  I have lost 116 lbs and am feeling great.  All my "numbers" were good w/Dr. Bernsten at Tallgrass.  I want to get down another 40 lbs, so I still need support.  Are any of you in the Marysville area?  Our support groups are all about an hour away, so 3 of us have been getting together once a month.  I just want to say I feel my surgery was totally worth it; if you are having trouble and need support, let me know.
