2001- Well I went to my first seminar on lapband surgery in Las Vegas. I then attened another one that same year and was able to see Carni Wilson after she had her surgery done. I thought to my self at that tiime maybe this was to invasive for me and I just need to try harder , try another diet.

 

2003- I have finally come to the decision that I need some help. Wen to another seminar on Lapband surgery. I saw one of my high school friends she had Gastric bypass about 1 year ago and she looks and she says she feels great. She also just had breast augmentation completed.

 

May had psych eval done , chest xray, blood work found out that I have hypothyroidism.

 

July Was seen by the surgeon today was told that I needed to make the decision on what surgery I wanted to have. Was discussed on the pro's and con's of both surgeries. I have choosen LapBand. Set Surgery date for August 21 2006.

 

August Day before surgery very, very nervous , everyone here at the site has been very supportive. Trying to be positive about the whole thing.

I'll say a prayer for you that you have a safe, speedy surgery and recovery! Congrats on your decision to get the band - personally I think it is a better first choice vs gastric-bypass (this being said from a non-banded person) but I too have a lot of support on this site and think the band is the way to go for most folks! Congrats!
