How lucky I am?

I realised how lucky I am that I had my surgery in NY with a wonderful team. Did not realise how many had to go aboard?

Had surgery.. has 2 yrs of personal problems..now back :)

:laugh:: Yours truly, has never blogged but has decided to do it to stay on track, TWO years ago, I had the lap band put into me. I lost so quick and was on track (very happy camper...lol). I went for my mamo and they told me that I had cancer..well the running around and the depression you feel is indescribable. At the time from the pressure, I started having some real health issues and my child needed me desperately to advocate for him in school. omg...it turned out that running for tests..showed that I had cancer...then the fools tried to take a biopsy and then they could not find it... then they take another xray..there is the cancer...then they get the surgeon.. he makes the hospital pre-op tests..then he gets looks at the tests...get a MRi ...great I am clastophobic...soooooo...I find an open MRI..wait again months for appointment..scared to death...and they can not get the color dye in me because my viens did not work..so the DR from that MRI came in and said..YOUR VAINS are the pits and we cannot do this...but I will personally review your xrays and have other doctors look...he at least said ..months of not knowing could kill a person..thanked him... a few days later he told the surgeon ..no way did I have cancer. MY has made me take the mamo again 6 months later...and when he saw that I was really in distress (go to his office and they can not find my mamos) he did his checking allowing sit in a chair, I think I upset him when he saw how much they had tortured me (it was the months of not knowing) BUT he knew since he had seen me so much at the hospital that I had gained some of the weight that I had so proudly LOST Well, I always did eat the little amounts but did stretch my stomach with large drinks and did NOT have the time or desire to exercise. At time during this period of life, I did forget to eat BUT worse is not to drink the water. Finally, I saw myself in a full mirror at the mall and was shocked to see me and my friend following me (:scared2:my boodie :laugh: ) SSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOO:thumbup: I called my surgeon and went back for a fill. Thank god my lap band did not slip (tested) and already have lost five pounds. I would have gone back earlier:thumbup: BUT SIL made me feel very ashamed :thumbup: since I have been back...and filled...I realise that I did come back with some weight gain but I probably (honestly :confused: could have been 400 lbs) so now I am really happy and hang up on my SIL who is a nut :tongue:   I am glad that I am back and can not weight to see and enjoy being without that extra fluff.   I will see my Dr. Pucci on the 18th of September and pray that I will be down to 275lbs.   I did invest in the QVC Dvds by Richard Simmons but will restart them today after handing out our temples telephone directories to members. I also was told to keep a log of what is going in:drool: the nutritionist said that I needed 65-70 grams of protein.   Wish me a successful day :biggrin:   Laura

Finally had the fill..and life is good?

Yup, I did make a mistake in my lapband adventure. I should have had myself filled because all of the garbage of life does not effect me. This tool is the miracle of life. I can now eat without feeling guilty, since before I always gained. Now, I do eat as before healthy and am losing weight. I can not tell you how wonderful it feels.   It is wonderful to get healthy and live in a smaller frame.   I am always cooking, ugh, and now I have a crew of high schoolers sleeping over for New Years and I will still be able to control my weight.   I still leave a little junk tray....some chocolate chips, nuts, etc and when in crisis grab some.   I found that A and P has an organic line in the white box and their Cherios are so so crunchy and yummy...so when I need that crunch, I grab that..used to use the pretzels but I do have a problem with salt.. I am addicted to salt. The second week of surgery, I ate the salt off pretzels.   I am crocheting and can not wait when I stablize my weight an be able to make myself and outfit.   Life is good!!!
