Guest guest Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Hi Carol, Thanks for the kind words. Only one question regarding your husband....does HE want to lose weight? As I'm sure you know, it is up to him and you can't make him do it. I wish my son and daughter and each of their spouses would get bands....and the daughter in law was scheduled with Dr. Ortiz....but she cancelled when she finally realized it would be doubly hard if my son wouldn't work with her to change what they have around the house, etc....and if she wasn't REALLY READY to change herself. And she realized that the main thing was that SHE wasn't ready. So she cancelled, which I'm sure was the right thing for her at this time. Maybe the time will be later. hugs dan " Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
