Beginning my journey
Apr 22, 2012
I started this journey in March when I made the decision to seriously pursue the Lap Band. I met with my bariatric doctor on April 11 (nutritionist and social worker too). My doctor educated me on VSG which I had not considered (or even heard of) before then. He said that if I were his sister or if he was doing this, he would do the VSG verses the Lap Band. He told me to research the sleeve and check out the forums here and see what I thought. It didn't take long for me to decide against the Lap Band. Now I'm set on the VSG. My goal is to make a life change that lasts and helps me reach my weight loss goals.Right now I am in the anxiety phase of deciding if this is the right move for me to make... trying to get my head around it. The waiting part is a bit annoying but I'm seeing that it is not a bad thing. It will be a turning point in my life for sure. It's good to have the time to really prepare. I hover between totally terrified and excited. It's all rather overwhelming to me right now. I am enjoying reading all of the posts on this forum. It had already helped me feel more at ease. I'm an information junky and need to know the facts and see what others have experienced.
