1 Month banded

changes us for the good in fact it makes us open out eyes to life even new life we never thought that we could ever have! I'm not going to lie and say this has not changed me when in fact it has I'm not the same person I was year ago or even few months ago I'm fully different I'm even like the new person that I'm becoming I'm taking more chances speaking up more then I did before I'm more out going have more energy.I'm also Girl have also help me open my mind and eyes even more to explore what is out their in this world even more!!! I have always been open mind to everything in life but I am more so now then ever! I have lost total counting It has be 1month since I have had WLS I don't know where the time went it just seems to have flown by like it's nothing!!!! I'm very happy that I have reached the one month mark it's little mile stone in my journey, I know some of you are thinking what's the big deal right? Well it is because what I have gone through to this point not many people can do let alone follow what they are told to do to get here. I have even reached some of my goals granted they are not huge ones but none the less they are still goals, one goal was to be able to walk up to the Jim Thorpe memorial which I did and plan to do again,another was to walk all the way up to North Street and home which I did,drop stop taking one of my prescribed meds which I have done. Those are some pretty nice goals for just one month banded,granted I have had some let downs I have not lost lot of weight since my operation but I was told not to worry because this 6weeks is time for healing for me. I did not like hearing that but it was the truth though. Their were some days I would wake up say to myself we need to take this band off we can't do this who are we kidding!!! Then I would snap out of it, say yes we can we have done the hard part by getting it done now the rest is going to be nothng but sweet for us. It's also hard because I don't really have friends where I live they are just people that I know!!! My real friends live in Tx,Ar, round here where I live most people just say we are friends they have not called me came to see me ask if I needed anything nada, I take that back their have been 3people that have done that so I would consider them friends to me. Other then that no one else round here that clams to be friends with me has done such a thing now I KNOW who my real friends round here are!!!! WLSlearning that I love all things East meets West or West meet East,India has had my attention for as long as I can remember but now that I had WLS it's even more so now I love the food the culture, clothes,music,movies, ect the list goes one so I'm exploring this right now it's Turing into begging good thing in fact for me!! Sharell, Goripre opt and post opt weight total of 34 lbs I have lost yes you read right IDK where they went I DON'T care they are gone I feel great!!! I know you are asking is this for me can I DO this well what I did it's not for everyone their are tons of WLSopticians out their you just have to find the one that was right for you. Lap Ban was the right choice for me. You might also be wondering is WLS for me that answer is up to you it may not be right for everyone. I will tell you this WLS is not quick fix at all!!! You have to work at it,it's life style change you have to be willing to take head on like I have done along with many others. If you would like to know more about what I had done feel free to ask me I will share with you! The choice I made took me 10yrs thinking about it 2yrs researching it so I knew what I wanted to have done.
