  1. Decided to start looking into lap band a few months ago. Since then I've started the process. Seen my surgeon, went to the information seminar, had a sleep study (and have sleep apnea). I'm scheduled for an EGD, psych eval, support group visit and nutrition class. It seems like I'll be ready to submit to insurance in January. I really want WLS and to be successful. But I'm struggling. I am on a doctor supervised diet for 3 months and I'm failing at it. I feel like I have no will power, I'm always hungry and eating the wrong things. When I read all the stories on this site it makes me feel that I have no willpower compared to others. How can I make myself follow these rules and stop compulsively eating? This process is opening my eyes to just how detrimental my weight is to my health and quality of life. It's starting to really get me down.

    7Mos. No Fill

    Maybe you can get a new doctor? This just seems so odd! Like you said... Why get lap band if you're not going to use it?

    Worry About Failing

    I really thank everyone for their advice! It has helped just to be "heard"! I am going to start drinking sugar free drinks to help fill me up and really really try to make better choices. I think that for right now I'm going to have to take this one hour at a time.... lol. Oh and maybe now is a great time to get started on all those little hobbies I wanted to try... Crochet and yoga... And crystal lite... Hmmm

    Sleep Study Time!

    I had my sleep study last night. It was awful. They tech said I appear to have sleep apnea so I'm waiting to hear what's next. I am feeling pretty low about myself but also Wang it all to change

  7. I am new to this page (and this is my first time on a forum!) I am currently in the preliminary process of lap band. I am doing a 3 month doctor supervised diet, go Wednesday for an EGD, Monday for a sleep study, then a support group, a nutrition class, a psych eval... Hopefully by then my supervised diet will be over and I can get this show on the road! I'm so anxious. Nervous. Excited. Hopeful. And a little uncertain.
