candy rain

Hiya Its so bizare reading your post because its exactly where i am right now, i have cut myself off from fam and frenz in the hopes that they will kind of forget about me and i can re emerge in a month or 2 thinner and lookin good, i feel as though everybody is looking at me and talking about me and judging me, its as though i feel that i have admiteed my weight is a problem and people can sense that and see me as a fat person. its strange wen i really think about it but i feel like i just want to vanish until iv had my surgery. I av stopped wearing make up and accessorising because deep down i dont believ im worth the effort in this state but after the surgery its a brand new day and il be pulling out all the stops, i understand why for some its like the first day of the rest of their lives, stay positive n keep your head up because your life is changing for the better and your almost there... im gettin banded 29th of june so simular times let me know how it goes xxx

yayyy, so glad 4 you guys 2, i am also self pay and am paying around £6000 here its the ost iv ever paid on anything lol but im sure its worthit, but the obsessing is drivin me nuts, im startin to do my own head in! pretty sure my bf is also sick of the surgery talk 2... o well only 7 weeks to go and i litteraly can not wait. june the 1st is awsome and i wish you luck let me know how it goes for you, candy x :biggrin:

Like many others i have been looking in to banding for about 3 years i finally decided to do it, i had my consultation and booked in i am self pay and am due to have my surgery in about 8 weeks but for the last few months i seem to be obsessing over every little detail. Reading anything and everything and constantly talking about my surgery this and my surgery that i think my bf is really starting to get sick of me going on about it. I guess for me talking about it makes it real and i feel like its really going to happen when i dont i feel like i loose morale? any one else doing the same thing or have i definitely lost the plot? any thoughts...:thumbup:

im june 2 {yayyyy} and sooo excited its all i can think about im thinking then end of june but june all the same good luck guys xxx:thumbup:

i understand your frustration, this is a life changing step your about to take and sometimes the pcp's just dont get it. myne have refused to even submit some of my records and proof of blood work just because they can. for me its almost like my condition is irrelevant to them and they just dont seem to be able to meet my needs? whatever wel get there keep your chin up because they second that you are banded im sure you will never look back :thumbup:
