Hi. I just came by your channel. I am on a weight loss journey too. I've lost around 60 - still have 30 to go. I understand your mind-tapes. I also understand about the "big plans" that we can make.

It sounds like you are doing a great job!

I want to sub so I can watch you reach your goal.

I hope you'll visit me as well.

Remember God has blessed us with this lapband, but never were we told it was going to be easy. Negative thoughts got us here, so remember where you came from and be proud of every ounce you lose. I am having a hard time right now and I pray. I hand those bad feelings over to God. I really feel my lapband is a gift and I want to treat it as such. You comfort many of us, so please lean on us when you need to. God bless and keep up the good work. We can do this, and we will do this. Stay strong.

Every day get up and rejoice that you are making progress overall. You are looking so good!! I think my negative tapes got burned in the OR, because I don't hear them anymore, but I used to hear you are SO far gone, what difference does it make? Why try? No one cares? Not anymore...I care...and the it matters to me in the long run and I finally accept that I can't be my own obstacle. I have to love me every step of the way! You are already a winner - just keep going!!

Change those tapes! You are right god made each of us perfectly. We are each the most perfect "me" there is, no one anywhere could be a more perfectly imperfect "me". I practice self acceptance every day, like when I find myself driving around the gym looking for the parking spot closest to the door so I can go exercise or making a batch of chocolate chip cookies because I want one then trying to give the rest away as quickly as possible, because I'm afraid I might eat more than one.

Playing a new tape sounds Good Paige! I am so glad you feel better, have a great Thanksgiving! :)

You are doing exactly what I would have a client do...answering back to your negative tapes with positive responses. Keep it up!

You are starting to tell in your face that your weight is dropping!

I am pre-op... my surgery date is DEC 22. Yay me!! As for the negative tapes... I thought I was the only one in the world who did that? I look in the mirror and I am very, very harsh on myself. Say things like "You are such a fat, ugly pig... why bother?" or "You are a failure in everything you do... you deserve this." Where this came from, I have no idea? I guess this is where we are all to "band" together and support eachother. =) I really hope I can do this.
