I was at the Pulminologists office this week. (My last doctors appt before surgery.) He says "You realize after you get the band on, it only takes one time of thinking 'oh I can blow it today' and you will strech your stomach out." and then you are done. Any comments on this? Im having the hardest time thinking that I could make one mistake of overeating and my stomach will be streched out. After making bad decisions all my life, the thought of changing instantaneiously is scary to me. surgery to be in November.:smile::smile:
