yo-yo no mo'

Thank you so much for your replys. I may be unsure, I think I'm sort of confused. I usally have an idea and take 4-5 months to find out everything, then make plans and have no doubts. Surgery is a big step, but the process sounds like it takes awhile and I will either be sure or not take the step. I want help. I too have done all the diets, some 2-3 times. I lose, but I can not keep it off. My Doctor was probably just trying to make me feel better as I started crying during our dicussion. He's been my Dr. for 10 years & knows I have struggled. :thumbs_down:I think I have asked to have my thyroid checked at least 3 times.lol I am here to learn.

:tt2: I live in western Washington, my DH is retired Military as is one BIL. My DSis tells me over Thanksgiving that they are doing Lab-Band at Madigan and I should check into it. I tell my DH and he encourages me. I have no clue what to do. I call my primary Physician, see him, he says he is not sure but he'll hand it off to referral and diagnosis's me Obese. He says he was only doing that because I asked for the surgery. The people in Referral's came through. I have an appointment at Madigan 01-08-09 for a Group Evaluation. I still don't know what that is, but I'll be there. I want to stop yo-yoing and can't think of another way.
