Good luck!!! You will do fine! You are normal to worry about the little things. Try not to though!!It is 9:04 now!! I wanted to wish you luck as you are probably all done!! You will be in my prayers today!

I feel the same way. So many mixed emotions! I go to the Dr. for my 1st visit on June 3rd. In the end it is so much excitement! Good luck to you! Let us know how it went for you.

Wow! that is crazy that he would say something so discouraging to a patient!! I would be mad too!! What Dr. if you don't mind me asking. I live in the houston area myself. I will be going through NeWeigh in the Woodlands.

Thanks so much.I am so ready to start my journey like right now. lol I know it is going to be a process. Are you from the houston area paige?

I have my first visit set for June 3rd at the NeWeigh clinic in the Woodlands, Tx. I have also read about JourneyLite from hearing about it from someone on here. How do you know you have chosen the right Dr.? Thanks for any advise:):rolleyes2:

I know how you feel. My husband is being supportive. well aboutbthe surgery part. Eating is a whole other thing!:blushing: My 17 year old is so worried. I finally said this is something I have to do for me for a ghange! I want my life back. It is hard for her to know how I feel because she sees me doing everything I have always done, but she doesn't see the pain I feel on a regular basis. I haven't even told my mom yet. I know there will be alot of negatives. I have only told about 5 people including family about my new journey. I am so excited and determined right now I want to tell everyone!!!:thumbup: A funny thing happened to me and my daughter last night. We went to Luby's to go. There was alady waiting and she said to the cashier as long as I have my mashed potatoes, I have had surgery. Well something came over me and I asked her what kind of surgery. She said Lap Band!! Wow! So she had told me that she is 4 yrs. post surgery and has lost 142 lbs. She reassured my daughter that it was the best thing she had ever done. I left there thinking o.k. God has just stepped in and told me I am doing the right thing. Sorry so long. We just need to hang in there.

I am in the houston area. I am going to be using the neweigh clinic. I have heard alot of good things about them.

Thank you for letting us newbies know what to expect. What a sense of humor you have. I wish you all the luck.

I am in Houston, tx. My dr. is Dr. Leiva @ Neweigh.

I enjoyed reading your post. I have my first appt. to see the DR. on June 3rd. I am very anxious, nervous, and excited. Good luck to you. What area are you in?
