So...I go for my preop testing on Tuesday, and I am really nervous what if they find something wrong with me and decide that I cannot have the surgery?? I am so excited about getting the lap-band, I don't know what I would do if they told me NO! I feel like this is the last resort for me. I have been heavy all my life, and it really got out of control once I had kids. I have tried everything that I can think of to loose weight, and nothing seems to help. I would work ouy 5 days a week and lower my calorie intake, but even that didn't help it's like my body is fighting against me or something. I really like to work out but I felt like I was working out for no reason becasue I never saw any results. I feel really bad for my husband. He is super fit, works out every mornig and has an awesome body, an then he is stuck walking around with me and my super jiggly belly and thunder thighs. He has never said anything negative about my weight he actually thinks I am beautiful which hey I can't disagree with :thumbup:. He only says that he wishes that I was healthier, but hey so do I! That is why I have have decided to do this, I have 3 kids and I would hate to leave them before it's time. I have a 7 year old daughter and I want to show her how to be an empowered healthy strong woman, I cant do that as this fat person I HAVE TO loose this weight. I am super excited for my surgery on the 17th I just pray to God that th pre-testing goes well and that nothing stands in my way. They say that if you believe in God and follow his plan that he will give you the desires of your heart....Well God this is me believing and my desire is to become the woman on the outide that I am on the inside by having this lap-band surgery....a little help please :biggrin:! Anyhow if you read this and believe in God please pray for me leave me a litte note and I will pray for you also. This road does not seem to be an easy one but it's one that I have decided to take!

Congratulations Chap,

I believe you are doing the right thing. I was denied twice and there was always some thing blocking my way, then...out of the blue the insurance Co. sent a letter of approval. I am scheduled for Aug11th and am on a liquid diet now. I feel lousy but I have to keep busy as my family makes dinner. The smells are driving me nuts.

I believe that God helps us all the way and He is directing this path. I have also been heavy all my life and have a great husband who loves me but wants me healthy. You will be in my prayers and please keep me in yours. thanks

Thanks for the support you guys, it's awesome that we have this website to share this journey with eachother. So Neueby you have had surgery already .....so how was it I am so anxious for Monday!!! I am on that preop diet and it is very restrictive my husband and I went out last night for dinner, and there ws really nothing for me to eat on the menu, but when I did get my food I was so proud of my self because all the things that were on my plate that I was not able to eat I pushed over to him and he gladly at it all (pig) (:sad:) I was still hungry after dinner, but I kept telling myself that it was gonna be ok, then we went to the movies and as soon as the smell of popcorn hit my nose I thought I was gonna die....I wanted that popcorn sooo baddd, but we walked by the consession stand and didn't even look back....my hubby was being very supportive. The next few days should be alot of fun!!!

Kamehar, yes I do have much more faith that a mustard seed God has really blessed me alot in my life, and I look at this surgery as another way that he is gonna bless me!

Neumeby you have to let me know how things are going for you, give me some tips not that you are a pro!! (:biggrin:)

God Bless you both!

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
    • I'm literally almost crying reading this. Mostly because I'mon this pre-op diet and these last two days have been difficult... but also because I needed this! Thank you! Congrats!
