It's All Coming Together

Making the choice to do the lap band is something I have agonized over for years. After finally making this choice I can say it's an educated one. I have fought with obesity since I could walk. And I am so ready for this it is not even funny.

 

On December 31, 2010 I paid the 500.00 deposite for lab band surgery. This was commiting to the surgery, the other 4,500 will be paid on the surgery day. This after noon, Sue the travel leason called me to discuss my travel plans. My husband Scott, our 1 year old son by then Miles and My self will be flying to San Diego, California from El Paso, Texas on March 13, 2011. We have not choosen a hotel to stay at that night so that is still to be arranged. Something Scott and I will choose here very shortly. But yay for getting to make the travel plans, and of course actually scheduled for surgery.

Congratulations! It is an agonizing choice, but once it is made and you are on you're way, you will see how "doable" it is. It makes obesity fightable! :) I have also been overweight/obese most of my life. I'm finally feeling normal! It had to take a Lap Band to do it, but I do not mind for a second. I'm very happy! Good luck to you!

I'm sorry, I called you by the wrong name from your blog. I meant Thomas. You'll get lots of support here from successful lapbandsters.

Well once you get banded and start dropping the weight..just think how much easier it will be to chase your son it will be. I have just lost 130 lbs. and I have a 3 yr old son. I still can't keep up with him every day (I wish they bottled all that energy) but at least I can catch him most of the time where as before I couldn't even get up off the floor to even try to run after him! LOL

I wish you the very best on your journey!!
