hopeful one

Good Luck to all of you. I was approved for the surgery and had done my 6 month DR. supervised program for cigna and got scared , When I did finally decide to do it My husband was diagnosed with Cancer and I backed out again because I had to be able to do for him, well he is better and I am seriously thinking about calling my surgeon's office and getting it all lined up again and getting the ball rolling. My 6 month program was good for 2 years and that is up in Jan 2013 so I really need to decide. I am so scared but I know it is what I need. I wish all of you the best of luck and sure hope things go well. Peggy

Hi Mick, I have not been banded yet, but I can't hardly wait. As for the depression , IT DOES GET BETTER, my son-in-law was banded feb 28 and he too was depressed but it passes and he has already lost 42 lbs, so hang in there and it won't be long till you are so proud of yourself. I hope to have my surgery in may or early june, maybe sooner. this forum has been a true blessing to me, I was so scared at first I almost backed out , but now I am sooooooooready to do it. Hang in there. Hopeful one
