Yes, you are right Mark, It is early for me and I don't even have a surgery date yet. Who knows, I might not get approval from my insurance. I am sure if I do get the band, I will eventually tell more people.
I just had my consultation today and I am sure this is what I want to do. I have told my husband and my best friend. I am still trying to decide if I should tell anyone else. I don't feel like I need opinions from anyone unless they have weight issues like I do.
