Intro - lap band - coming soon!

[dlmyvette 12]

Hello Everyone:

My name is Yvette, I'm 29 years old, live in the South Florida area and will soon be having LAP BAND Surgery. My first consultation with the surgeon Dr. Matei will be next week November 19th.

I'm ready to change my life for good. I've tried every diet, weight watchers was the most consistent diet and one that I did the most. I actually lost almost 40 pounds with it, but then gained them back. I know that LAP BAND is right for me and although I'm anxious about some of the things I've read about it, I see how successful it has been with others and feel that in the end this is what will help me be who I want to be physically. I want to be healthy and live long.

I do not have any children yet, but hope to have children in the future. I've watched countless video blogs on You Tube about LAP BAND and others who have undergone the surgery and what they've gone through. Those videos have been very helpful at least with what to expect.

I guess my biggest fear right now is getting a fill and not being able to swallow if its been flled too much. That scares me. Anyway any suggestions that anyone can provide will be welcomed and appreciated.
