I got my packet from the Doctor



Recommended Posts

It's finally here, my packet from the Doctor's. Boy, did I get jitters when I saw it. I want this so much, but the nerves sure did kick in. Now, I have to get it completed and sent back, then get the referal letter from my Doctor. I also want to make a list of questions that I want to ask. I am anxious and nervous and I haven't even been to the Doctor yet!

Congrats!

I found that the more reading I did the less nervous I became. Also, hang around here, it helps to talk to others that have already traveled down the path that you will be taking.

Betty, it's a roller coaster of emotions, isn't it? You're excited and ready to make a healthy, positive change in your life, you're scared you're going to fail, and start second-guessing yourself. You've already done one of the hardest steps, realized you have a problem and seeking help. We're here for you! I'm so excited for you!:)

Thanks Marie, I think reading all the posts and support from this board is what made me finally decide to do this. Everything I had heard about the band was bad, but after seeing what y'all eat how much you have lost has made me a believer. I am excited!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
