Hi,
I have just found this site, and have wanted to have this op done for quite a while. I am about 245lbs, 30 years old and have three little boys aged 5,4 and 2.
I have now booked an initial consultation, and could be having the op on 14th November. The problem is, that having read lots of people's posts, I am scared that I haven't the willpower to survive until the first fill. My regime would be 2 wks on Optifast before op, 4 wks on fluids post op, then 4 wks on mushies, and my doctor's policy is no fills before 3 months post-op.
If I had willpower I would not be at the stage where I am going to have this op. And as my mum is funding it I am already feeling enormous pressure to NOT FAIL.
How will I manage on so little food for 3 months if my band isn't restricting my appetite?
PLease some-one talk to me. :help:
Thanks
Kathryn
