I have a surgery date, November 12. I'm surprisingly not scared. I am struggling with who to tell. The best advice so far has been, "you can't untell someone", so I'm telling my husband, closest sister and probably my twenty year old sons. I was wondering about the comments we all hear about WLS. It's a cope out. It's the easy way out, blah, blah, blah. But I realize that I have never taken the easy path in my life. I have taken the road less traveled by and that has made all the difference. In my life I am successful because I use the tools available to me to succeed, I ask for help when I need it and I never forget where I came from. The Lapband journey is another example of using these behaviors for success.
