Making a Decision

[Beckie 0]

Hello everyone. I am trying to make the decision to have the band done. I have done everything except make the call for the DATE. I have read so much but still there is that little scary part saying to read more. I have read the bad and the good and would like to know how you made your final decision to go and have this done. Thank you for helping me. I am from Canada and this is an expensive procedure so I want to make the right decision and be informed as much as I can.

thnks Beckie

:thumbup:hi beckie,

totally understand what you are going thru,i have had the band for two years its a big decision but one that only you can make,yes its a very expesive procedure i was self pay. i paid 17,000dls but its all worth it in my case i just had to do something about my weight it was totally out of control, i was feed up with the yoooyoo dieting and always being back at the same place very fat... today i am not at goal yet but sure feel great about what i have lost. im still working hard for the final pounds but i know i will get there. the hardest thing for me was thinking i really did not have to diet or exercise that the weight was gona just come off... soooo far from the truth its a constant watching what you eat and exercise.Beckie its such a personal thing i wish the best and hope you do wats best for you. LOL
