jane13 2,256 Posted November 9, 2014 Dont know what I am feeling. Mixture of doubt and excitement. Highest weight now and I don't know what else to do. Get xrays and ekg same day. Then dietician about a week from now. Got psych paperwork to fill out. I never binged on food so some of the questions seemed aimed at that. I make poor choices and dont exercise. Any one else feel that way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jane13 2,256 Posted November 9, 2014 U must be around the same age. I am 51. Do some of the posts make u question ur choice? Lap band vs sleeve for example? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grandma2tweeties 108 Posted November 9, 2014 I am 55 this month. I've researched a lot and I am going sleeve all the way what's your choice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jane13 2,256 Posted November 9, 2014 I was actually going sleeve but I am leaning towards band. My family wants me to be able to reverse the procedure if I need to down the road. I am looking at about 100 to 125 to lose. I also cant afford to miss alot of work. So band seems to be it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flmommyof2 79 Posted November 9, 2014 I just took my psychiatric evaluation this last Friday. Yes they have some odd questions. But i just answered honestly. My test was 450 questions. Waiting for results and have an procedure class next week. I am excited and nervous. The nurse at the Docs office said I should have my surgery the beginning of January. After approval of course. Just wish time would move faster. I'm just excited to get the ball rolling on weight loss and a new healthier me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
