Hello,
Today, I went to my first seminar in Cincinnati in regards to the Lap Band Surgery. To say the least, I was very emotional the minute I walked into the room. Tears seem to flow as I embarked on this new journey. I have only 50 lbs to lose and paying the $13,000.00 to do so brought many fears to me. It's been 15 years since I have felt like a real person and this very well could be my last hope to feel normal again and just live life happily. I have put so much money into Jenny Craig, and all the other programs that seem to work great, but unfortunately, the weight comes back and fast.
I hope to find some positive feedback as I post my fears here on the days to come.
Thanks all....
