sue419 1 Posted October 1, 2009 Yay, my insurance approved my surgery two days ago and I am scheduled for October 21st......cant wait.......now the "what ifs" are seeping in...like what if i dont lose weight??!! My brother got banded in January and honestly he lost more weight on the pre-op diet than he has in the past 9 months of banding....and that frightens me.....although I do not think he is following and kind of diet...I think he may have just cut down on portions....very scarey...I do tell him that he really cannot say the lap band does not work, because he is not working for the lapband......I really hope I can practice what I preach.......wish me luck!!!!!!!

kiz 1 Posted October 1, 2009 Best of luck to you, Sue!! It really is true that the band is only a tool, which means we have some work to do to get the best results from our band. Hopefully, you can be an inspiration to your brother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
