Yorkie Mom

I am so sorry that happened to you. Please do not feel discouraged nor disgusted. Start over today. Pretend that today is the first day after you were banded. Remember that excited feeling? I am sure you can lose those 29 pounds again. All of us are rooting for you!

Hearing you say that makes me feel much better. I also am scheduled for surgery next week and have only told my husband. I do not want to be the topic of conversation at my parent's or my children's homes. I am sure that they have discussed my weight issues enough without adding new weight related topics. I do not think I could ever tell the people I work with. I am afraid that this too will be a failure and will subject me to further ridicule only this time they can add in the financial part. Good luck with your surgery next week. Who knows, in six months we both may be able to share our secret with those around us. But until then, mums the word.

LOL! Most people are truly just trying to help--others I am not quite so sure of.

Congratulations! I am sorry you had to go through all of that nonsense, but I am glad you have been approved. Do you have a surgery date yet?

Good luck today!

Great advice! I'm glad everything went well for you!

I got my insurance approval and surgery date is August 12--I can hardly wait!
