The Journey Begins

I met with the bariatric team yesterday at the hospital I will be getting the lapband procedure done. I am still awaiting insurance approval, but for now, the nurse put me on 1200 calorie diet, 30 min a day exercise plan. Whenever my procedure is scheduled, I will be put on a stricter diet a week prior to the procedure, but I'm not going to focus on that right now. So I'm buckling down and trying to stick to the plan, as I know this will make for an easier transition after the procedure. This is a lifestyle change and the lapband is only a tool to assist with weightloss. There will be many changes I will have to make along the way for me to be successful, so here I go.
