Consultation Tomorrow - What To Expect?
Its_Me posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I meet w/the surgeon tomorrow for a consulatation. I have turned in my insurance paperwork. What can i expect at the consultation? I am pretty sure I am leaning toward lap band. I'm excited and hope this will be a go for me. I've read and learned SO much on these boards, I sure hope to be back with more questions! -
That must be an amazing feeling! The last time I flew I was VERY close to needing one but managed after a few tries and lost of huffing and puffing to get the think buckled. I prayed the lady next to me wouldn't have to get up during our flight because I didn't want to go thru that again. (she didn't). But I was miserable the whole time with the seatbelt and squeezing myself into the seat. I look forward when I can fit into an airplane seat and be (somewhat) comfortable. Same thing for attending ball games and such.

What Does Having The Lapband Feel Like?
Its_Me replied to SinCityGal's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
These were some great questions and answers. thank you all and thank you SinCity for asking them. One question from me - what does restricted mean? -
Hi everyone. I am just in the early stages of "thinking about lap band." I mean I've considered surgery for a few years now but just didn't want to go there. I have two friends who have done gastric bypass but for some reason that scares me. But they tell me having a "foreign object" in their body scares them. Can you guys give me your thoughts on this? Looking forward to sharing my journey with those that understand.

Help! Don't Know Whether To Tell Coworkers..
Its_Me replied to Wisdom2KnowTheDifference's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
For me, I'm a very private person, so I don't think I'd tell. I know in the past when I've done Weight Watchers, I'd get comments like "are you supposed to be eating THAT?" I am considering the surgery and at this point I don't think anyone needs to know. I'd probably tell my cat, but I'm pretty sure she'd keep it to herself.
