The surgery date has been set for June 30. I really wish I could have it sooner but I just can’t get the money together in time.
I go see the dietician Tuesday to discuss diet after the band. I told the doctor that I really have a mushy food phobia, so she is supposed to help me come up with something I can handle.
D is worried that I am just wasting my money; truth is I am a little worried about it too. I see so many positive posts about lap band and I have really been avoiding trying to find the negative. I finally broke down and looked it up today. According to Dr. Oz’s website the band doesn’t work for 1/3 of the people who get it and about half have it removed in the first year. I have to keep in mind that the surgeon really thinks this will work for me and I have to keep up with the positive thinking. That and half marathon training might help keep me on track.
I am also scared because food will no longer be a “go to” for stress and anxiety. That is a really scary thought, my whole way of thinking is about to change in a little over a month.
