christy668 1 Posted June 16, 2006 hey girl we were ALL scared at one time or another! we wouldnt be human if we werent! its a surgery and a life changing experience for sure.. I myself have been through it twice and would do it all over again if need be! this is a great TOOL for us to loose weight As for your chocolate cravings...hummm maybe they need to invent a chocolate patch? just take a hershys bar and duct tape it to your arm ...haha maybe that will work?:heh: I dont have any chocolate cravings i have salt cravings!!! so i have a salt lick on my arm...just kidding! *8thinks to self** i wonder if that would work??? hahaha Youll be fine and will find lots of support here on LBT! are you in texas?

NowItsPlanB 0 Posted June 16, 2006 Hippmom, Dr. Keilin & Dr. Hekier did my surgery. You will find that on your first appt you will meet the lap band coordinator, Betty-May. She knows EVERYTHING there is to know about the lapband and about finances. She will become your best friend. Feel free to ask her any questions. I know I did & she never got tired of answering. She really understands and is there to help you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
