Just today I scheduled an orientation with the surgeon and dietician for the Lap Band procedure. I'm trying to decide if this is something I want to pursue. I have a lot of question, concerns and fears. I'm really excited to have found your forum to hopefully help me through this journey I'm thinking of making. :-)
Hello everyone,
I have done all the prerequisites and am just currently waiting on insurance approval. I have been thinking through all the rules that I will have when I get this lap band, such as no bread, no sodas, eat mostly Protein and vegetables. I am not great at following diets for a long time hince the reason I am overweight. This seems a lot like a diet with rules that you have to follow. Why can't I just follow these rules, what help does the lap band give? I know a lot of you have been successful with the lapband and I just would like to know how the lapband makes it easier to follow these rules and what difference it has made for you vs just doing it on your own. Don't get me wrong, I am all for the lapband, but before I submit myself to surgery I want to know that this will actually help me. Thank you for the input!
