I have been a member of Obesity Help since June of 2005, I am just now creating a profile. Writing is not my thing, but here goes my story. I was going to have the banded in 2005 but I chickened out. so I was not banded until Nov 2007, I have had many fills over the years so many that I lost count. I lost 80 lbs in the beginning then it came to a complete stand still. Have since gained half back on. Talk about being DISGUSTED. I exercise 3 to 5 days a week, eating lots of salads, fish, chicken, turkey and vegetables. It just seems like nothing I do has jumped started the weight loss again, Now I do eat a piece of cake or have a cookie every now and then, because I am a diabetic and I control it by my food and Thank GOD my A1C is down to 5.4 which is very good so I do not understand why I stopped losing weight and now gaining back. I just got approved for the Gas tic bypass, I thought long and hard about doing it . It was recommended that I should have gotten it done in the before. My Surgery is schedule for September 8, 2011 I will keep you posted I am counting down to start my new journey.
