sweetpee2012 reacted to laddie1229 in Newbie To Website...Sweetpea I am doing great thanks for asking. I have my first post-op tomorrow. I began this journey at 311#. I had to do a minimum of 3 months weight loss (WW) for insurance approval and other tests. I weighed 270# at pre-op on 12/22. Today I am at 258.8#, I know this will slow after next week when I go to mushies but slow and steady wins our goals.

sweetpee2012 reacted to cori jo in What Do U Say.....I have only told the selected few that I was getting banded (I got banded on the 30th). I heard the same thing..."You don't need it...Eat better and work out..." blah...blah...blah! The truth is that I have struggled with my weight for a long time and I made the decision to have lap band surgery for me! As far as I am concerned it is my business! Do what feels right to you...ONLY YOU!! Best wishes and congratulations!!!

sweetpee2012 reacted to Sunny15 in What Do U Say.....I only told my fiancé, my mom, and my brother. When people ask me how I'm losing weight I tell then with a lot of hard work- people don't need to know everything and chances are they will judge you- if they are critical of the surgery then they don't need to know about it- hence why my father and friends don't know

My husband and I were banded 2 weeks ago and we both are thrilled with our results thus far. It's a complete life change. If this is what you want, no one else's opinion matters.

sweetpee2012 reacted to shay33 in What Do U Say.....I really hate it when I tell someone and they say, " Oh, you really need to be careful." Ok so you think I decided to undergo surgery lightly? I have decided that I will tell some and some I will just not because I don't need the negativity. I go to surgery on tue 3rd when do you go?

sweetpee2012 reacted to Jdunn23 in What Do U Say.....I feel proud that i made the choice to get banded. It feels right! Heres the issue when i tell people that im having weightloss surgery, they say things like y you dont need it. Just workout and diet. Its seems as though people dont understand. Plus when i hear those things it makes me doubt if im doin the right choice. What do i do just not say anything. Im a little ova 24hrs away from new life new me. Do need any bad thoughts. Bad mojo
