Info Seminar

Well I just got back from the information seminar, got the kiddo in bed and sat down at the computer. It is K's (my daughter) first day of school tomorrow .. going to Pre-K! I"m so excited for her to go and learn, I know she is going to do great but I'm gonna miss my precious baby!

So, on to the seminar ... two things really that I thought of it 1. I'm really leaning toward the Lapband for sure now. Just from what they said about the bypass and the sleeve, I feel like the lapband would suit me better and be more for my lifestyle and desires. and then 2. I'm totally bummed because they are scheduling consults for September, no sooner. I was really hoping to have the surgery in the beginning of Sept since I am already approved with my insurance and all I need to do is the consult, psych and nutrition appts then the surgery. I guess there is a reason God is having me wait. Just have to trust in HIS time. (I"ve been learning that A LOT lately in other areas!)

I am even more excited to have it done though. I've been really worried about excess skin at the end of it all and needing some plastic surgery afterwards ... which would of course have to be out of pocket, and the Doc said that if you are in your 20s or 30s and strength train while you lose, it is easier for your skin to "pop" back. Well I am 30 right now, 31 in Nov and I love strength training! I also heard someone on here say that if you have a BMI of less than 45 or 50, I cant remember which one, that your skin is more likely to "shrink" as well ... All positives!!!
