Is beauty worth all of this?????????????????

After getting my lap band I feel as if I can do it all. I am 37 yrs old and I have had a gap between my front teeth for ever and I dont know if I just got use to it or if I really like it ( other then that I have a beauitful set of teeth). I have always had comments about my gap weather it was positive or negative (schools fights) but I never gave it too much thought but now since I had the courage to get the lap band i have choose to go all the way. I went to the dentist and boy did I jump before thinking the next thing I know I have a new set of teeth yeap in two days I went from my big beauitful gap to a set of temps venears oh they hurt like hell what did I do? My whole head hurts the good thing about that is I havent thought about eating lol the lap band expiernce was disney land compared to this. Oh why couldnt I just be happy at the thought of being skinny now I am trying to be the next super model :cursing: I have lost my mind and teeth I hope like hell this wasnt a bad decsion cause if my teeth dont come out right I will get this band removed and gum my way to 500 pounds :rolleyes2: My listening to people "oh Michelle close your gap you would look so much better" Hell I thought I was fine with my gap HELLO even with a couple of extra pounds I was still cute it just got to where I couldnt breath that when I thought hey maybe I have a problem and that is when I went to the Dr. and he busted my bubble and informed me that I was obese. I have to have these temps for two weeks I hope this pain subsides quickly or I am going for dentures:laugh: Yeah and I am suppose to put my patch on yeah right this hurts and my cigs are helping me I will stop soon for real. I went and bought a pack and couldnt believe they were damnear 6.00 hell no I was paying 3.50 for Marlboro just three months ago. I have so many issues I could have my own soap prime time. I am going home early and drink yes I said drink me some vicadin and crash hope I dont wake up with my teeth in my hand, oh thats all i need to complete my soap a dam drug problem lol. Michelle

LOL!! Just wondering what your next flaw will be that you notice. LOL! Don't go for the wigs!! LOL

You Probably don't want to hear it but truthfully you should worry more about the smoking than the teeth. There's a reason they make you quit before the surgery it aggravates the lining of your organs including your stomach and could potentially cause seriouse problems. Besides that it doesn't matter how hot you are when your dead! I know I used to smoke also did for 13 years and quit 2 years ago, hardest damn thing I ever did but you can do it and everyday you continue to smoke is just like everyday we put off losing weight. Good luck to you!!
