A little nervous

Hello! I am kind of new to this, I went to a seminar about 3 years ago, and just didn't think it was for me. I am know ready to progress, if my insurance, Aetna HCA will approve it. I have been to another seminar, I just haven't paid the 150 for the initial visit. With the economy like it is, I have to save up for that part. But since I work for the hospital, I do get a little bit of a discount. So that will help A LOT! Does anyone have any thoughts for me, to keep me motivated and not fall off the lap band wagon AGAIN!:confused:

The best motivation for me was to come here and read all the success stories, look at before/afters and ask the 'banded' your questions. It's been so motivating not only to see how quickly some lose weight, but even more for me; how their relationship with food changes. Hearing people say things like "I hardly think about food anymore" or "I now have a normal relationship with food and I just eat until I'm full...wow, I only ate 1 cup!" Those statements more than the weight loss keep me going. Good luck to you! -BG
