Last night, I sat up late, could not sleep, thinking that I am making a mistake. I told myself that I can do this on my own, save the money (I'm paying for this myself) and just stick to a diet plan and get it done. I did a lot of research but then last night, I started looking up all the "bad" stuff instead of the "good". I cried and cried, thinking that I shouldn't do this. I think the reason I am thinking this way is that I'm not a person that needs to lose 150 ro 175 lb......If I loose 55 lbs or so, I'm looking thin!! So last night, I'm telling myself, why go through this for such a small amount of weight loss? Just stop eating!! (yeah, right......) As much research as I've done, I think the one thing that I never knew, that I read last night, is that Lap Band isn't good for those who love sweets! Why that little tid-bit was not known to me, I don't know......I really LOVE chocolate!! To think that I cannot ever have that again is a horrible thought. Then I heard, no popcorn........I think the thing that is making me think this over again is that I need to be sure that it's okay with me, that I never eat certain foods again, even in moderation. Anyway, at this point, I'm torn and am going to sit down with my husband tonight and talk. It's an important decision that now, I am re-thinking

Hi - I'm new here and am scheduled for my Lap Band surgery on 11/23 in DFW, Texas. I am excited and panicked all at the same time. Some days I'm excited and can't wait and then there are days like today where I am panic struck.......I can't figure myself out. Am I alone? Anyone else nervous as all get out?? Roo's NeNe
