Hey all!, another newbie here-
I am in the preliminary stages of the Lap Band process, I attended a mandatory seminar in July and will have nutrition a nutrition seminar in Nov. and 2 one-to-one appts. with a nutritionist in Dec. & Jan.
I am starting to get excited about this whole process, but I am anxious to "get going", anxious to get the weight off......... I imagine others have experienced the same feelings? Assuming I meet all the pre-op requirements, I am roughly calculating that surgery would not be until the end of March 2008......
I am wondering what people did while in the "waiting" stage of this process, waiting to even have the nutrition seminar (which won't happen for another 5 weeks). Did you start working on your nutrition and exercise early? I am finding it difficult to get motivated while in the "waiting" stage, however, I know once I meet with the nutritionist I will extremely motivated b/c the process will be more a reality, more tangible at that point.
Any advice?
Many thanks!
