Hello This is Shanna!

  • Hi my name is Shanna

    I am new to thie site, and happy to be here. I have only read a few things here and there (there is a lot!!), and I already love this community!

    I am scheduled for the lapband surgery, in one week, and I am nervous. Mostly, I am nervous that I will not be able to lose weight because I have such a powerful strong addiction to food. I am supposed to be on a liquid diet already, and I cheated on that!!

    About me, I am 38, I have six children, and I am recently divorced. I work full time and I am currently a full time student as well. My life is not as busy as it seems, but it is as boring as it seems .

    I hope to make some friends while I am here!
  • Hi and welcome to 3FC.

    Good luck with your goals.

    Hugs
    Michelle
  • Hi and welcome Shanna!

    My mom had the lap band surgery in January 2008. So far she's lost 75 pounds. She still has a way to go but I have seen how much better she feels now. I hope the surgery does your body good too!
  • Welcome Shanna to 3FC, we are glad you are here!
  • Thank you so much for the welcome!! I am home recovering from the surgery today.
  • Welcome! I hope your recovery is going well.
