My band is still keeping me in line....7 years!!
Sep 15, 2014
This morning I weighed 130 pounds, my lapband has continued to keep me from regaining excess weight! I realize that I am (and always will be) an obsessive over eater. I have / had tried to change that behavior in myself for years... but could never find a cure. This band is my food police, if takes the control out of my hands, when it comes to over eating, I CANNOT over eat!! Though I still love food, all kinds, and sometimes I get a little bummed because I really wanted to have that dessert or that huge burrito, but the door slams shut.... saying "HEY, YOU'RE DONE, NO MORE IS GOING DOWN"!
My band is a life saver.... and after 7 years of having this, I am still ever so thankful that I was able to have the surgery!!
***I started this journey at age 44, on June 26, 2007, weighing 245 lbs. Today I weight 130 lbs --- I have lost a total of 115 lbs !!
