    A brief intro

    I am one of those people that can say I saw myself in a photo and was horrified. You see I haven't been in any photos for a few years always very good at avoiding them, then I gave a friends son a Camera he wanted to take a picture of me and I couldn't stop him, I saw it and wanted to die. I made my friend get the camera and delete the photo. I had been thinking about lap band for about a year but hadn't done anything about it due to depression and anxiety, I didn't want to go out the house and bump into people I knew. Then my health cover said they were dropping banding on my level on the 31 May but anyone who was booked before that could pay for the higher level cover and still be eligible for surgery immediately not have the 12 months wait. So I decided if I am paying the higher cover I am doing it. I have been for meet and greet with surgeon and dietician and all others I had to meet. ( I'm in Australia) not sure if there are different processes. Now I have a date to go back to doctor so he can say all tests were fine (better be) and set a date. I was so down until I stumbled accross this site 1 hour ago, so scared but I have just seen some amazing photos and some amazing supportive comments to each other WOW. it is really nice to know. I have my brain in the right frame of mind I am just like lets doing now I don't like the fact that I rang to make an appointment last week and they never got back to me and then DR was full up for this week, I am living on liquid and just don't want to wait long for surgery I want to start living again.
