Hey! Congratulations! I'm scheduled for tomorrow 1-25-13 @ 8:00am. Can you tell me how surgery day went? I'm just curious of the process, how you felt when you woke up, pain etc. I'm soooo frickin nervous lol

I'm new to this. Yay me! I just got my letter of medical necessity and I'm scheduled for a psych evaluation. I chose lapband over sleeve. Hope I made the right choice.I'm a fatty Mcbutter pants. As a matter of fact when I first discovered this app I was reading ALL the stories while eating a doughnut lol. Eeek! Help! My weight has been up down up down up down. Now its just usually up. I'm 35 and I need help with this. This is my ONLY chance to permanently keep the weight off and live a healthier lifestyle. I have 3 teenagers and a one year old. (he's a surprise I never knew I wanted). When I take him to the park my daughters have to go down the slide with him because I don't fit. My goal: to go down the slide with my son. I want to stand up without sticking my butt way up in the air first. I want to play with my son and not yawn. I want my family to stop lying to me by telling me I'm not fat. I mean seriously. I have a shelf on my butt you can set your cup of coffee on. I want them to tell me how thin I am and mean it. I want lapband to work for me! My fear is that it won't. That's the only thing I'm scared of. What if it doesn't work and I stay fat?

Thank you everyone for your AWESOME responses! I love this app! I am absolutely ecstatic about this whole weight loss thing. I think what has me sold on lapband is the permanence of the weight loss. I took your advice and now I'm thinking " what if lapband does work for me"? What if I can wear my daughters clothes? Changing my eating habits is gonna be hard. I'm an excellent cook and I love the taste of food. My husband has committed to changing his eating habits as well though. However right now we're watching King of Queens, eating junk food and discussing our weight loss goals. Lol isn't that sick. One day at a time people! Ill start my diet tomorrow. Actually I probably won't. But if I say it after I get real full then in my mind I'm justified lol. This is why I'm so fat and this is why I need help. C'mon lapband!
