Well I am still learning with the band. I guess that is a never ending process. I have been under a lot of stress here lately with my son. I know he is 24 but he is my baby and its hard to let him learn things the hard way. I have always been there for him with what ever he needs and now I just am not able money wise to help him. I cant keep from feeling guilty about spending so much money to get the LAP-BAND® surgery.

 

I do feel that if I didnt get the LBS done that I wouldnt be around much longer. I was having so many problems health wise. I have noticed that with all the stress and guilt that I feel a little sick to my stomach and at the same time I want to eat something sweet all the time. I have not give it to that though because I know it is just the old way of trying to feel better.

 

I go this Friday for my third fill. Just in time I wasnt able to go on june 18 because my doctor was out of town and then on june 25 I was suppose to go and they said he still wasnt back in town. Then they asked me to come in on my next schedule appt. on july 9. This is suppose to be my fourth fill. :lol:

 

I guess Im still doing good though because I have lost 56 pounds so far and on july 8 will be my three month bandiversery. Thanks for letting me get all this out. I know what I need to do it is just hard right now.:frown:

Its hard. I have a 24-year old daughter and I do the same thing -- pay for expensive hair appointments, send her gift certificates -- and then she turns around and buys a new car! OK, I'm starting to get it -- spend some time and money on myself for a change and get healthier so I can help her later in life :-).

Thanks sandradee and blossoming; Guess I just need to remember that. I also need to know that it is normal to feel that way about your kids even if they are not kids anymore. lol
