Thank you so much Loyalfriend! You are so right!! I have lots of hoops to go though, i was like do i really want to even try, then i just felt how my body felt and i was like Heck YES i am going to try, Aenta will have to tell me no. that is my only thing i am worried aobut. I go to PCP monday to see if my Medifast diet with him will be good enough to count as my 3 months of diet. ugh. you go to get lap band as last resort and they make you diet more.. I will try to keep positng as i go though the stages. just talking helps. Thanks a bunch.

This is a big decision and it is not another diet. It is a life long commitment this a way of life. You learn how to eat all over again but with smaller portions. I decided to have my surgery about a year ago and after going through all of the hopes my insurance company wanted me to go though I finally had my Lap Band Surgery in March of 2010. It was the best decision I ever made. I am still learning how much I can eat and what foods I can eat but it is well worth it. Good Luck to you.
