Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Meg and I am 21 years of age and am going in for my appointment to talk to my doctor (at Kaiser) about the LapBand procedure! I am quite nervous about how to even approach the issue, because even though they are a doctor, I am pretty shy about sharing my weight issues as well as my PCOS issues with my doctor!

I have tried dieting, diet pills (Hydroxycut, Alli, Hoodia, prescribed medications by previous doctors) exercise, not eating LOL! everything!

So with all that said, I was hoping someone could give me some friendly tips on how to approach it in a positive way, and not to sound like I am looking for a quick fix or solution.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and hope you all are doing wonderfully pre and post operation!

God Bless,

Meg:redface:

Heyyyy girl! I"m over in Costa Mesa. First of all, your doctor is as concerned about your weight as your are, and this is his job. HE's not going to judge you on a personal level. He'll get you some basic info, and probably refer you to a bariatric surgeon. There are some great ones in the area. email me your address or phone and I"ll catch up with you later! I"m at work! hehe
