    I told the therapist way more than she needed to hear. It was just a lot of stuff I needed to get off of my chest and she didn't seem to mind.
     
    I used up the whole hour and she had to schedule another appointment on Friday so we could finish.
     
    The sleep study wasn't much fun but it beat trying to sleep with an IV in like last weekend.
     
    I think I got about 2.5 hours sleep in the 7.5 hours I was there. I have a hard enough time trying to get comfortable in bed without wires all over the place.
     
    I don't know what either of these have to do with lapbanding but it's good that I am getting them out of the way early.

    After years of denial and apathy I finally decided to have the surgery.
     
    Like many of the pre-ops that post here, I am very skeptical but what have I got to lose? Insurance is covering the costs and at the very worst it is just another of my hundreds of failed diets.
     
    My initial visit with the surgeon was this morning and I guess we won't even be setting a date until January 6th next year.
     
    I guess until then I will keep reading up on everyone else's progress; dream of the day when I can put on my socks and tie my shoes in less than 10 minutes and not be out of breath when done; practice drinking flat beer and actually use the gym membership that I've paid $30 a month for over 2 years and have never been inside.
