I've been waiting for this day for over 10 months and now that i got a date i am scared. I feel like crying but i cant. I'm speechless. I'm worried that i'll regret doing this.

Change is always scathe but this is good change embrace it and just hold your breath and jump in you can do this

I'm so glad I'm not the only one feeling nervous- mine is set for June 28th and I've started my pre op diet! I was excited, and nervous, but still excited. . . Until yesterday- I had my yearly ob/gyn appt and my doctor was shocked that I was doing this. I am a self payer, and my BMi is at 35. He told me to reconsider, and it was hard driving home having a different doctor not being "excited" about my decision. I came home and discussed it with my husband and family. Thank God they are very supportive, and we know others who have done lap band and have been successful! I kept going back and forth, but have decided this is something I NEED to do! I had gestational diabetes and most of my maternal relatives are diabetic. I'm not there yet, but I do not want to get there either. . . I know this is a great decision I'm taking, but a tough one as well! Good luck to everyone!!
