I need some advice...

Mar 17, 2009

I feel like I am alone in this process. My family and friends think I'm taking the easy way out. I wish that was the case. I know WLS is NOT the easy way out. I will be going to see my surgeon April 16th and I'm scared. I have mixed feelings about this. With no one to support me I feel lost. I have always let me friends and family influence me. I can have my mind made up about something and change it at the snap of a finger because I listened to what others had to say. I am 30 years old. I'm 5'0 and weigh 195. I have been on diet after diet. Just back in 2004 I was down to 123 because of diet and exercise. Of course I starved myself. I went to bed so sick everynight from being hungry. I kept it off about 5 months but, then realized I couldn't live forever starving myself. I ended up getting up to 211 within 3 months. I know WLS is my only option if I ever want to live a healthy life. I just don't think I can do it without some sort of support. I really want to hear how life is after getting the lapband. I'm scared of some of the things I have read. I really need some positive feedback. If you read this blog please write back and tell me how your life is after getting the surgery......Thank you all very much !!!
