Don't feel so bad...I have been cheating also and I had my surgery Aug 30 a week ago today. I feel just like you. I told my sister today that I will be the only obese person with a lap band in the world. I guess I just won't let it work:cursing:

Funny, I have the very same insurance! Do you work at the University of Texas? I did, but I am retired now. It didn't take very long for the approval. It's somewhat up to your doc's office too, if they turn in the paperwork right away. What doc do you have? I have Dr Eric Wilson in Houston. I had my banding done on 8/30/2010 just 5 days ago. I wanted to get in before that increase on insurance. That's crazy. Just glad they could help me. Good luck!

You probably are not on line yet, but I wanted to see how you were doing, just in case you were checking in. Welcome to our little family of people who have chosen to get healthier, thinner and happier. We bandsters must stick together, so let us know how you are doing. There is a wealth of knowledge on this site, so just ask questions if you have them and someone will respond to you. Best of luck, again.

Hi, Thank you for the well wishes. I love my band and my new found Happiness and Life. I made a wish for continued health for all my band buddies. I blew out a candle I did not have cake or ice cream. I feel GREAT.
Best wishes. Kathy imaluckydog
Ps I started my journey on a Monday too. Please keep in touch and I may be able to help if you have any question on your journey. Take care for the next few days will be the hardest part because you are healing on the inside. Get up and just walk and take small sips of water. Best wishes on a speedy recovery. xoxoxoxoxoxo

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I am so happy for you! I start my journey tomorrow morning! I hope I am as successful as you! Have a wonderful birthday you little thing!!

Thanks for responding to my blog. I wish you the best of luck tomorrow. This is the greatest gift you could possibly give yourself.
Just a few things to remember - when you get home you will be sore. Take your pain medication and relax. But Tues, if you are watching TV get up each commercial and walk, even if it hurts. If you don't walk, you will not get rid of the gas. If you don't walk you will be more sore. So start moving on Tues.
Best of luck, again. Please keep us informed of your progress. Blogging or journaling will help your journey. You have friends here.

Wow! Congratulations! My surgery is tomorrow morning and I am looking forward to feeling as good as you do! Today is a day of self-doubts for me because of my hunger. This is my 4th day of nothing but liquids and I would really like to eat right now! But, I won't, I'll hang on till the morning. It gave me encouragement reading your blog. Thanks!

Sounds like you are doing great. I hope I can do as good as you when it's my turn for the band in 2 weeks. I am really nervous about the "after" eating but you really made me feel better.
