I'm about a week and 1/2 away from my band surgery and am getting very excited (and nervous too). I want to grocery shop this weekend for liquids/soft foods there I can have for the 1st few weeks post surgery and was wondering if baby food would be okay to eat?
Well since my insurance company doesnt cover any form of weight loss I am left on my own to pay for it. The cost is $12,900 and I am going to finance most of it. I feel like my life and my body is more than worth the price. I live in Houston and my surgeon is going to be Dr. Spivak. I've heard a lot of good things about him and he made me feel very comfortable at the seminar and private consultation. My surgery is set for Friday, 2-20. I am getting more and more anxious as the day draws closer. A friend of mine was banded over 2 years ago and went to Mexico to have it done. It would be cheaper to go there but I am too chicken.
I have been trying to mentally prepare for this but I hate the unknown. :thumbup:
I am only 5'1" so every pound I have put on and plan to take off once and for all is really noticed.
225 / 135
Well, I've made the decision to be banded. My surgery date is set for February 20th. I am very excited and nervous all at the same time. I've been very overweight for most of the past 10 years and I am ready to once and for all do something about it.
