hi my name is manda, i just turned 30 on march 4th and i've decided last summer to get the lapband surgery. my surgery date is april 11, 2011. as the surgery approaches i find myself getting more anxious about it. i'm not just nervous about the surgery itself, but more nervous about post op. is there anyone out there that can help? for 6 months now i've been going back and forth with my decision. unfortunately i still live at home with my parents and neither one is supportive of my decision. both of them seem to think i can do it on my own since i've done so well pre-op with the eating plan my dietician has put me on. did anyone else feel this way before their surgery?
