Hi! I'm new to the site. I am three weeks out of surgery today and am down 17 pounds. I look forward to talking to everyone. I think it will make it so so nice to be able to ask questions of people who will know EXACTLY what I'm talking about!!!! Congrats on your progress!!
I used to look in the mirror and was disgusted at what I saw.
Today I looked in the mirrow and said, "eh, disgusting, but doin somthin about it dadgumit !!!!"
Hi Melanie,
I really believe the exercise is the most important factor. I am TRYING to start my routine but its been an uphill battle. I am really hoping and praying that I can get motivated soon. I was banded on June 6th and so far I'm down about 12 lbs. I feel sluggish to say the least.

Just Do It !!!!
It's hard. There are days I get there, and then while I am on the eliptical machine I wanna get off. Seriously.
That's when I talk myself into just 10 more mins.
I too thought I could not take the time out of my day, but I started to take the time. And I just make it as important as my getting out of bed in the morning, feeding the kids every day, etc. You know what I am saying?
Two weeks of steady loosing
