One year old and Yeah Baby!

Thread Starter  

My LAP-BAND^® anniversary was Sept. 8th! I am very suprised that I did this well. I always, half-way, expect that I'LL be the one that it doesn't work on. That was my biggest fear going in...that I would fail.

I was pretty diligent counting my calories the first 6 months. I walked about 45 minutes every-other-day. I also pretty much stayed away from the bad stuff (junk).

The last 6 months, I've reintroduced junk (unfortunately). I also have been as diligent with my exercise. However, I have continued my calorie counting. This helps me remind myself to eat healthy.

Lapbandtalk has been my MAIN support throughout the year. Local support groups were for gastric bypasses and didn't offer much for myself. Who else could I talk to about my LAP-BAND^® adventures!!! Thank you for all of your support...

Shawn :clap2:
