blogentry-38270-13814461122531.jpgBand removal is in 6 days and now I am nervous. I have literally been eating a lot lately and I think it's from complete stress of getting this band off and NOT knowing for sure if the sleeve will work, not to mention if insurance will cover it.

I really want to be HEALTHY, go running, go to the waterparks and be able to walk up the stairs without taking 5 breaks!

This is not normal for me, I am normally pretty strong but I feel like I am breaking down and losing faith in myself.

 

I dont want to be a negative nelly, really I don't but saying that I am scared of my failure and lack of control is just an honest step for me. I, ugh, I don't know.

I want to be that girl again!

First things first. Take a deep breath and exhale slowly. Your anxiety and doubt is completely normal. And you eating just lets me know that your an emotional eater(most of us are). You need get back on track and find away to divert your stress into something other than food. It is normal to have doubts about getting the sleeve also. it took about 2 months for me to get my approval letter. each day i called the weight management center asking for an update. As far as the sleeve working im sure it will. it worked for me . i started at 540 pounds and i am now down to 338 pounds. The good thing is that you are on the right website to get good information and great support. Keep your head up and stay positive. Hopefully this helps.

Thanks! I 100% am and emotional eater!! I am so proud of you for your amazing weight loss.

I really hope it does work, the band didn't so I guess I just feel I have two strikes. One for getting this big, one for the band failing and one waiting in the wings. Lol.

I will do my best to think of your amazing weight loss when I doubt myself!
