Jewel how are you doing so far?

2001- Well I went to my first seminar on lapband surgery in Las Vegas. I then attened another one that same year and was able to see Carni Wilson after she had her surgery done. I thought to my self at that tiime maybe this was to invasive for me and I just need to try harder , try another diet. 2003- I have finally come to the decision that I need some help. Wen to another seminar on Lapband surgery. I saw one of my high school friends she had Gastric bypass about 1 year ago and she looks and she says she feels great. She also just had breast augmentation completed. May had psych eval done , chest xray, blood work found out that I have hypothyroidism. July Was seen by the surgeon today was told that I needed to make the decision on what surgery I wanted to have. Was discussed on the pro's and con's of both surgeries. I have choosen LapBand. Set Surgery date for August 21 2006. August Day before surgery very, very nervous , everyone here at the site has been very supportive. Trying to be positive about the whole thing.

Need some Support , Having second thoughts , going through alot of emotions right now:phanvan

Thanks Avilla for the support

Yes, feeling of being selfish, also just about the potential risks and complications involved, am I just opening another door to let these things be a higher percentage to myself other than just leaving things alone. I guess it really is hitting me when you have to sign informed consent over all the complications and risks involved with the surgery.

Thankyou everyone for the advice and support. I just can't stop thinking about the informed consent the surgeon gave me at Pre op appt. Reg. all the potential complications and risks involved.

Congrats on sticking to it. Thanks for sharing, I am to be banded on 8/21 very nervous going through alot of emotions right now.
