How typical is this?
oh can could you imagine (God forbid) if you were to have a complication once banded? when i was looking for docs, two returned my calls about a month after i had left voicemails and emails and one didn't even call back! i woudn't give the ones who called later on a second chance.

i am staying on plan today because ...
i'm staying on a plan today because yesterday was a GREAT day i stayed on my plan, and i think just me writing in here helps remind me what my daily goals are! (staindgal: just because you had the left overs this morning,doesn't mean it has to ruin your whole day or you have to eat bad things for your other meals. you can make your other meals healthy...just my take on it; don't give up )

So Much Anxiety
...for us. no anxiety YET. but i do have the same fear of failure. putting all this money into my body and having yet another procedure fail (i had lipo when i was 18. i know i wasn't mentally prepared). this time around i see things differently and i am trying my best to think & imagine the best outcome with my band. for me its not about image, i love my body as is, but my health is slowly taking a toll. i need this surgery and i know only i have the power to succeed; as do you. i too have started to write about all of this in my journal...it helps so much. i wish you all the best, keep your heads up, and remember your lbt friends are a source of motivation & support!!:biggrin:

The Joys of PCOS!
ladies!!!! much hugs!!!! *:drool:* i too have been blessed with the sideburns,mustache, and FULL beard! its the worst thing ever. but as i read your posts, it is WORTH (saving up or pay by session) getting laser hair removal. i've had only one treatment, and already i see the difference. :cursing:
