Band removal then Bypass

So, my date the take my band out had been changed - it is now two weeks earlier and my bypass surgery is still the same date. Meaning I will be without anything for 2 months. This scares the heck out of me. I mean I feel like once it comes out in just going to gain...and then there is there is the uncertainty of bypass. My prime concern is holding myself accountable for my actions. In other words, really working on my willpower. Has anyone gone through this before? My surgeon feels it is necessary to do the procedure in two parts in order to give my stomach the ability to heal (scarring). It is being taken out because I massive reflux. The reason I am going to do bypass rather than VSG.
