Doctor visit at UT Medical

Hello everyone,

 

I went to my other appointment at Dr. Madan's office (UT Medical) on yesterday and everything went great! They are very imformative and easy to talk too. I submitted all my paper work on yesterday to the coordinator and she will submit them to UHC on Monday. She said she loves UHC because they are so easy to approve WLS, at least within seven to fourteen days. However, I couldn't sleep last night from waking up thinking about the lap band and when I was sleeping I was dreaming about my weight! So frustrating:phanvan !! I guess I'm still debating (for what I don't know) as I have stated before I'm excited at one point, but then I'm scare the next. I look at Telly's before and after pictures and think WOW!!! I could look like that and then I get ALL excited and motivated, then once the adrenaline is gone I'm like do I really need to do this?? I think do I really need to go to such an extreme solution to lose weight? I just need to get back on my diet and WORK OUT! Then I think about all the failed attempts I have tried to lose weight. So I don't know...
