NSV and Not Banded Yet! :)

I feel I had an NSV last night. One of my dearest friends that I thought was going to have a problem with me having the surgery and not support my decision came through for me last night.

He told me that he will support my decision and will be there for me if I need him. That is just plain awesome. It made my night. I was on cloud 9! I know I shouldnt really care if they are behind me or not, but I do. I am doing this for me to better myself and want to make my family and friends proud of me!!!

I am having my surgery on the 30th of June and I feel like I have already gotten an NSV without it! :) Look how it is going to make me feel once I have it. I have all my family and friends support.

My Dear Husband has been so supportive of me doing this and he is very excited for me. He is such a wonderful man. I am one of the luckiest woman in the world!!!! WOO HOO!!!!

Thanks Kathy! Wow, Looks like your the only one to reply. I really appreciate you being here for me. You are an inspiration to me to keep going through with this. Of course I get those days where I am like, WHAT AM I DOING? But for the most part I am very very excited about doing this so I will have something to talk about with you once it is done.

Yes, He is! He is a very special part of my life. I think very highly of him and really appreciate him coming around and understanding my decision. See we have another friend that had RNY and she has lost all of her weight and she looks good, but her attitude has changed and she just doesnt take care of herself. She drinks Sun Drops like they are going out of style. We try to talk with her but she doesnt want to listen.

So, He has reservations about it. He doesnt want to see me act like her or eat like she is. He said if I do and he notices it he is going to kick my ass! lol So he is a great friend. He will look out for me and will keep an eye on my habits. My life is going to turn into a big show where everyone is watching! lol

Thanks for the Reply!

So glad you have such a wonderful suport system. You are going to be so glad you got you r band and it will change your life in ways you never dreamed of. I've only had my band a few months and I already feel so different then I did on any diet because I know I will nnot gain the wight I've lost back. Good luck and congratulations on getting your surgery date.

Thanks so much. I can't wait to have it done. I was able to pre register at the Hospital today and get that all squared away. I am so excited. This month is going to go by so fast. :)
