New to Lap Band Talk

[fefebutterfly 7]

Hello everyone,

It is good to find a site where there are so many people that have a common interest. My weight is a sore subject and my husband just found out my TRUE weight while visiting the Doctor a couple weeks ago.I am still in the Pre-Op stages and I have no idea whether or not I am approved or when my surgery is. I am so excited about this journey that I am about to travel. I am tired of being TIRED Literally. It is time for a change in my life and for me to reclaim my youth! All of the stories I have read are so inspiring to me and I thank everyone for sharing. I have alot of weight to lose in order to reach my goal so I just need LapBand to give my some help in that area.My Dr seems to be so knowledgable and patient so I felt so comfortable when we met. So here it is:

Current Weight: 351 pounds

Target Weight Goal:150 pounds

BMI over 50

Age 27

Surgeon: Dr. Paul Enochs

Cary Bariatric Center in Cary, North Carolina

Welcome and my bf of 7 yrs found out how much I weighed during my consulting visit too! How embarrassing but he's more supportive know-how so it was worth it! Good luck on all of the pre stuff.

Banded 2-1-11 down 18 lbs...first fill 3-7-11!!! Can't wait for "chewy" (my band's name) to get fat so I can get skinny!
