Josie- your height and weight are exactly mine right now- we are body doubles!
I'm getting banded on March 3-- I'm hoping- no I'm PLANNING to be where you are in a year! Great job!

Did you have trouble with hunger and/or cheating after being banded? I'm cautious about being too hopeful that the band will actually help where other diets have failed me.

Any words of wisdom for me?

thanks for posting your stats- they help folks like me!

Sadie

I must eat and if I see another protein shake I will throw up.

My typical day:
