  7. Hello, everyone May 14th Dr. Marsden ( Very nice man ) will band me at the Wise Regional Medical Center in Decatur about 1-12 from my house but what can you do at least.. I only have to do a 7 day 2 meals 2 shake a day post op diet. Prays the Lord!! :wub:
  8. the pysch visit is nothing more then a few questions about your weight history, do you realize what it will take to make Lap Band work for you,do you have a support system family, friends & or some type of group very important to say yes to support also some rational thinking questions like The early Bird get the Worm? means... i believe the point is to make sure there is not some type of eating disorder or anything going on in your present life that may stop you from successing. 6 doc visit is about the changes in your diet what your eating habits are now and the changes you will have to make I actually had to change my eating habits over 12 visits so 6 is easy, also to prove you our willing to commit to the process not looking for a quick fix well i hope this helps
