Being banded on Wednesday in Toronto

[Glenn911 0]

Starting to get nervous. I'm scheduled with Slimband on Wednesday afternoon. We fly in (my wife and I) from Nova Scotia in the morning. Excited about the change - afraid of failing - again.

Fingers crossed.

Thanks Glenn

Glen remember the band is a tool, nothing more nothing less, you can sabatogue it too if you try. However, the band can keep you honest as you learn to eat and make choices that are the best. As for being nervous, try not to be. Dr. Yau is one of the best. I flew from BC to toronto and back within two days. Just take loose fitting clothing, gas X and you should be fine. Without the band, you know you have failed the in past but with the band you more than likely will not. I have had the band 4 years and although I have had my ups and down (recently gained) my overall loss for the year was 7 lbs. I have never in my life lost weight 3 years in a row. I am a slow looser because my choices are not so good at times, but the band can not be faulted. If you post on your clinics website, you find find they have terrific web cam chats and support. Good luck

Thank you Doddie! Rationally, I know I'm going to succeed, but given 20 years of failures - it will take time to climb that hill. Knowing that you've continued for 3 years is a great motivator - I really appreciate it.

Great journey is about to begin. Take unflattering pictures of your self now, then as years go by, you can see the changes that you make in your photo journal. I love going back to see the differences. Look forward to seeing you on the chat lines.
