Sep 24, 2007

ok- don't get too excited- it is only for my consult with the nurse practicioner- but I am excited about it.  It is 2 months away though- seems like forever from now!  I will try and bug 'em in a week about a cancellation- fingers crossed.

UGH!!

I found this website yesterday through a few links involving mohamed ali's daughter, her lap band surgery, and support groups.  I could not bemore thrilled to have not only people with real stories about surgery- which I about jumped up and down when I saw- but then I saw there were local groups- and not only that- people who had the same surgeon with the same procedure I am looking at!!!  I am attending a seminar with Dr Pohl next Thursday, the 13th.  I am trying to drag my husband along so maybe he can give me some support with this.  Everyone around me is VERY much against this, so much so, that my husband is the only one of have really talked about it with.  I have been reading people's stories and I am such an emotional wreck right now, hoping to someday be at the points I am reading about.  I am really scared about this, but have done research.  I think the lapband would be the right option for me, it scares me to think about the ohers- but that is my choice and I am not downing the others in ANY way.  Even the lapband gives me doubts as it is a permanently installed thing.  I called Dr Pohl's office today to try and schedule an apt for a consult and get a jump start on all of the people at the seminar, unfortunately you cannot schedule until you have a signed slip from attending the seminar.  I said, "I'm sure the apt will be after the seminar".  Still- no dice, have to have the slip before even calling- oh well.
