4x4 Moma

I knew it was just too good to be true - I think I will always crave chocolate. I feel with my past experiences with diet, I will more than likely not get restriction right away either. Though I am not going to be negative.

Guess I will just have to see.

I did get GREAT news today. I call the doctor's office and found out that my name has been moved to the scheduling dept. Someone should contact me within one week with an appointment date. YEAH! Yippy !! Hooray!!. Now I can start to panic. Not about the surgery -- about being put to sleep. Oh well, I am not turning back now. Please keep me updated with you and share anything you learn along the way. Share your Tips of the Band. LOL

Thanks -- It is a happy Friday. Just got a call from my MD's Office and I will be notified of an appointment date within 1 week. YEAH!!!

Happy Friday to you!

Your quilts are beautiful!.

Good luck today. I am praying for you. Please post an update as soon as you can.

Yeah!!! You Go Girl. I have not been in ONEderland since I was about 12ish.

Thank you for the pic comments. I have a thing for Black bears. I would love to take you up on the help and support. I have lots of question. HaHa

Here is my first question -- Does the band help you adjust mentally as well as physically?

Wanting to eat just to eat / having craving / etc..

Thanks again - Amanda

Howdy,

I could not help but notice that your start weight is REALLY close to my weight now. I am still in the process of getting my band. I hope to have it within a few months. I also notice you are from Yulee, I have some friend that moved to GA. from Yulee a few years back. Yulee is just not an everyday name. Best of luck to you. Please keep posting pics.

BTW - Did I read your tickler correctly -- Are you in ONEderland??

hey cht5455-- yeah for you on your 40lbs gone forever. I am also from ga. Who was your doctor? Any suggestions. I look forward to hearing from someone close to home.

Cammy - Reading your post in your album was like finding that perfect Hallmark card that says exactly how you feel. I am 33 and 245lb also. I too forget how fat I am and just as soon as I start enjoying myself I see a mirror or a picture. It ruins it all. I do not have a date yet - all of my pre-op stuff is done and I am waiting on the insurance co. now. Please update and let me know how you are doing. I would love all the details (good,bad, and ugly) I am ready for the lapband, but I am also very scared.

It is pics like yours that keep me going on with all of the pre-op stuff. I feel like my day will never get here (waiting on insurance approval now). Thanks for posting your story - you look wonderful. Best of luck to you.

Let me just say -

It is pictures like yours that get me geared up. I am still waiting for insurance approval. I pray one day I can tell a band story like you. You look wonderful. congrats. AMK
