I know the fearful feeling very well - one year ago my hubby and I went to Vegas for business and some fun and I laid awake the whole night before we left worrying about what would happen if I couldn't buckle the seat belt on the planes. I was fine on the flight out there, but when we returned home we had to ask for an…

Congratulations! Children are a beautiful gift from God - never should they ever be considered an error - the choices we as the adults make are sometimes in error and the results are children - but the children themselves are never the error. I pray for the very best of health for you and the baby. God is smiling upon you…

AMEN to everything you said - it is a life change - the focus needs to be on God, NOT on food. God made us to need food to live, but He did not make us to do nothing but eat. Thanks for sharing!!!!

Congrats on your first 5 and here's to the next one, two, three, and so on!!!!! My wake up call came 1.5 years ago when my father passed away from morbid obesity related issues. I was so broken to see my 69 year old dad die and I didn't want my own kids to be going through that 30 years from now. So I made changes and went…

There is NOTHING wrong with you - I had band surgery back in May and I do get hungry and I most certainly have cravings!!! The surgery is to help you with portion sizes and to help you eat until you are full. Do you have a support group you can join at your surgeons office or the hospital you had your surgery at? I…

I had the band - but some of what you are experiencing is what I experienced and yes it is normal. The gas is the hardest part of the recovery. You need to keep walking to get it moving - keep sipping - you'll be fine. Congrats on your new life!!!

I feel for you! I am one week away from my surgery date. I've been on the Optifast 800 Protein Shake diet for 3 weeks. It has not been easy at all - I just keep telling myself it will end and I do want my surgery on time. Also, the reason for the liquid diet IS to reduce the size of the liver. Good Luck!
