Thank you all for your wonderful advice. Has anyone ever felt like they made a mistake and wanted the band taken off? How do you handle big holidays with all of the food? desserts? Am I worrying for nothing about these things? When were you able to start exercising? and what kind of exercising did you do? Thank you. Ohiobluegal

I am new th lapbandtalk. I am considering lap band. I have my consultation in a few weeks. I am worried about the food like most people that I have read about. I'm also a worry wart, emotional eater, and just plain scared. I'm afraid that once I get the band it won't be right for me or I will miss the food that I love so much (which brings me to why I have to consider a band in the first place). Do you ever not think about the food you used to be able to eat? I hate the fact that food rules my life right now and I don't want to do that anymore. I just want to start living!!!!! Can anyone give me some good helpful advice, please? Maybe some good websites to look at. Anything is most appreciated. Thank You :help:
