hey girl....

I understand your emotional needs, and first and for most, not sure if you can do the lap band again. Something for you to research. I am scheduled for my band on 12/3 and literally can not wait. I must say, I did go to 2 doctors. The first one, I told him I was self pay, and to me it seemed once he saw dollar signs he could care less what I did or didn't do. So I went to a 2nd Dr. and the attitude was night and day. He was kind, caring, and very somber about the whole procedure.

The one thing I can tell you that has been drilled into my head, the band is a TOOL. Only I can make the true difference in changing my habits, and lifestyle to make this work for me. But I have had way too much support from all sides, more good stories and outcomes than bad, but you have to want the lifestyle change, not a band aid.

I wish you the very best in your Quest, and I guess in all this rambling, make sure the doctor you choose makes you comfortable....your paying him for a service, and he/she should be with you to the very end.

Please feel free to write me, if you need to vent, or ramble....I am a stay home mom, and always enjoy meeting new people.

Good luck, and happy holidays
