  1. Lap Band Newbie Blues

    lovelove973 posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    I was banded on June 25th. I was excited about being banded but since having the procedure must of my excitement has died. Now there's just a lot of fear. All of the "what ifs" are taking over and the constant thought is what if I don't lose the weight or what if I do and I hate my new body because of loose skin. Sheesh. I wanna be positive but it's still a struggle. I had so many bad habits before surgery and they don't just go away with the band. Although I know I can't eat certain things I still crave them. I'm a sweet lover so I'm going through withdrawal in a sense. I just don't know. I'm in search a weird space emotionally and this just isn't what I expected after surgery.
