OK, so I am laying it out here for all to see.
A little about me. I am 37 years old, married with 3 daughters, 11,4 adn 2. I work full time as a paramedic instructor at a college and part time as a paramedic. I am also a 9 credit per semester student at Towson University. My schedule makes it crazy for me to try to diet. 25 weight watchers points spread out over a 24 hour shift is tough!
So, my doc recommended the lap band. I have a consult with the surgeon on 7/9 and am really anxious. I am concerned about the 6 months of diet documentation. I have been doing weight watchers but not seeing my doctor monthly so I see him tomorrow to see if I have to start over again or not.
Anyway, my husband is 100% against me doing this and that makes it really tough for me but I need to do it for my health.
I will keep you all up to date......

Give your husband the facts and he'll probably support you. There is a lot of confusion between bypass and band, and I spend a lot of time educating people about what I am doing. And a few people have been told that I am doing this for me and I need their support. If they are not going to give their support, then I need their silence and acceptance. Good luck!Posted 07-01-2008 at 12:21 AM by cherieinnv
