Starting Point
Nov 27, 2006
ok, I had my consultation on 24 November. I am considering lap band surgery. The doctor and staff were awesome. All of my fears should be relieved. Doc told me he has never had anyone die from the lap band, he performs about 30 a month, he has only had one complication and the band was removed and the patient was fine. So why am I still hesitating? I am nerved up about going under...I had 4 c-sections and I was awake for all of them. I have this control issue, yet I cant control my appetite! go figure.
I have 4 children 16,13,6,&5. Everyone I knows wants me to do this, especially my parents. I always do what my dad wants, dont want to let him down. I really want to be healthy and thin so I can enjoy life. There are so many things I dont attempt. My parents have told me since I was a kid that I am never happy, nothing satisfies me. I have been overweight since I was 7...is it all related? Is there something more? I fail every diet after I plateau, but when i stick I stick really strict. I will plateau for 10-12 weeks after I lose about 60-70 lbs, then I try increasing activtity and get told muscle weighs more than fat...I finally get discouraged and give up exercizing and eventually start eating everything I gave up or sacrificed the 6 or so months I dieted. This yo-yo effect has got to stop. If anyone has any kind words to help me feel at peace about this decision please let me know. I know the end result is what I want, I really dont think I will die, why cant I be as excited as everyone else on here? They are pumped cant wait to go under the knife...what is this hesitation? Will I fail the psych evaluation??
