slins00 · July 21, 2008

Hello everyone! I started with the whole doctor visits and insurance stuff on June 20 and recieved the info that I was approved and will be banded on August 7th.:ohmy: The thoughts have been racing in my mind and I am very excited and scared at the same time. food has always been a major part of my life and I am so looking forward to be able to contol my own life instead of food having control over me. I want to learn to have a healthy relationship with food and not feel hungry alllllll the time. I look forward to hearing from people that will be going through the process at the same time and also words of wisdom and advice are greatly appreciated from past experiences. Sarah
