Ok so i decided that i want to start a blog, i think this will kinda calm me down during my journey to be banded...i am an inpatient person sometimes, especially when it comes to wait for something to happen, i just want it done now without all the extra stuff that's involved but i know i have to be physically, and mentally ready for this surgery so it is for the best:rolleyes2:.... N.E.Way i had my pysch evaluation yesterday and it went pretty well. The Doc, thinks that i am ready for the lifestyle change and can see that i am not BSing about it.... Good!

The surgeon is looking to do the surgery in August, i hope before i go back to school, i know that in school i can make a healthier eating choice than i can at home (my mom love to eat, but she's a twig) why couldn't i have had her Genes like my brother and sister? :)

Next month i have my other appts. and i have to see the dietician 3 times before the surgery, i know my insurance will pay for the surgery so i am not worried about that at all, what i am worried about the most is sticking with the routine diet and exercise, when i do diets i stick with it until i see that i have lost a good amount of weight, then i get bored and stop... then gain it back plus some:eek:... i am tired of the vicious cycle so i have to be determined to stick with it... i dont want to be too skinny i just want to be healthy and out of risk for everything.. i think maybe a size 8-10 would be good:cool:... Is there anyone else out there that don't want to be too skinny or is that just me?

Getting healthy is the whole point of the band anyway. Getting "skinny" is a perk. Ha! I'd also like to be a size 8-10...I don't think I've EVER been that size! Best of luck with your surgery!

I do!!!! LOL The smallest I can remember ever being was 170. On me that was small...and now I am hoping for like 150-160. That would be the best! I just turned 29, so I figure if I can look good in my 30's then who cares how I looked in my 20's. lol....can't wait to have this baby and get back on track!!! Good luck with your date and keep us updated!

Sweet, I can completely identify. I'm SO impatient and blogging has helped me through it.

Lap Band Talk has been such an important part of my journey. Good luck to you!!

No Honey you are not alone. I don't want to be skinny, and based on my body type I doubt I will ever be skinny. But I can't wait to see size 12/14 again! I am in the same boat as you. Had the dietician visit, psyche eval, and support group meeting. I'm doing my 3 months visit with my doc and i have my second appointment tomorrow. I'm hoping to be banded by August but the surgeon hasn't given me a date yet. Best of luck, we'll get through it!
