My Surgery date has been set !

:tt1: It took me a little while to finally decide to have the Lap Band surgery done. I'm glad that I did not rush into this decision. This is a big decision and not one to be taken lightly. The fact is that I can lose weight. I have done it so many times. I bet that so many of you have too. :mad: I can lose weight! I can lose it on many plans too. The amount of success I have had losing weight is related to how long I am able to adhere to plan. If I am able to adhere long enough, I can lose quite a bit of weight. HOWEVER, what I have not been able to do is maintain the weight loss for any length of time. :party: I am done with that. I have a friend that wanted me to try to lose weight with her. I thought "no." I will support her in any way that I can, but it would be insanity to try this even one more time. I have heard insanity can be defined as doing the same thing over again expecting different results. I have been insane most of my life. No more. At this point in my life it makes sense to add another very useful tool... the Lap Band. My physical body is in pain all the time now. I've just worn the poor thing out. I need new knees, but won't get them unless I shed weight. My mobility is also limited by lower back pain. I have neuropathy in my feet. I have fibromyalgia which puts a nice frosting on my "cake" of pain. I must lose weight because I'm just not ready to hole up in my house and let the world pass me by. The world IS passing me by now and I can't peddle to catch up. So... try another diet? nupe !!!! On September 28, 2009 I will get my band. It will be a tool that will help me lose weight and gain a little of my life back. It's mine and I don't want to give it up to extra body fat !!! May you enjoy this day, that is unless you have other plans. MrsMeep :wub:
