Revisiting!

[Spaness2012 609]

Last year I made the decision to get the lap band surgery. I found a good doctor, followed 6 months of monitoring, lived through a liquid diet for 2 weeks, and 2 days before the surgery...I found out that my insurance would only cover half (this was news since we all verified that they would cover it at the beginning of this journey). Needless to say, I couldnt go on with the surgery in September as I didn't have the money to proceed. I was devestated!

With that knowledge, I knew I could save some money, use my healthcare spending account once it rolled over in January, and pull some other resources to get this accomplished.

Monday I revisit the doctor's office to get this ball rolling again.

In the months since my cancelled surgery, I thought that I would find reasons not to move forward with the surgery. A sign....I pondered? But here I am still committed to the process...the tool...the goal. I never really wavered from wanting the surgery.

Maybe that's a bigger sign.

Welcome back! I think you'll do beautifully with the band. You obviously have the commitment and determination or you would've given up long ago, but you didn't, and now here you are. It's that commitment and determination that will help you so much!

Best wishes to you on your journey.

Dedication to the effort and commitment to the band is half the battle in my opinion. You will do great!
