Chris:
I had the same worries. But if you listen to your band; you'll lose the weight. The band will let you know when it's full; you just have to learn to listen to it. You have to exercise, you have to do the work; but if you work with the band, you'll succeed. Please let me know if you have any further questions, would love to help you as much as I can.

Starting New Life and Terrified
MicheleYB replied to lingra's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think we all went through those feelings. But to run away; well, that will only get yourself further away from being healthy. I started my weight loss journey 2 1/2 years ago. I was afraid, too. I live in Wisconsin and went to Texas to have my surgery. I was lucky enough to find a FANTASTIC surgeon and I to this day, still fly down there for all my fills. You need to remember, the band is just a tool; it is up to you to use it correctly. But I think you're ready. Bless your little heart; I've been there and now how scarey it is. I started at 305# and now I'm at 127#. I will keep you in my prayers and hope all went well for you!! Michele -
Well, this is my first blog. I was banded on Jan. 9, 2007. It has now been 2 1/2 years and if I had to do it all over again, I most certainly would!! I was very lucky to find the most caring & compassion surgeon ever!! It was a long trip from Wisconson to San Antonio, Texas, but to this day, I still fly down there for all my fills. When I started my weight loss journey I was 305#, had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, was on 2 different types of pain pills for my back and knee and was on a CPAP machine for Sleep Apnea. Now, here I am, 2 1/2 years later and I no longer am on any pain pills, no longer have high blood pressure or high cholesterol and no longer have sleep apnea. I am now 127# and feel the best I have in my entire life. I love life now, enjoy my family more, and now I actually like myself. I love to consult other weight loss patients and am thankful for Dr. Jorge Rincon!! He literally saved my life!! Michele
