So, last week I went in for my required psych eval and it went great. It was pretty much a counseling session to find out what my reasons were for getting the lap band, any concerns/fears I had, any previous history of depression/anxiety and how my relationships were with my family/friends and my decision to tell them.
She had the lap band about 9 years ago and has lost 140 lbs, she looks great! She had lots of interesting info about patients that sabotage their weight loss by eating sweets and to be on a lookout for that. No alcohol-fine,no problem. No carbonation-We've stopped for the last 2 mo. but every now and then we might have a diet soda w/ dinner so that's something I will absolutely have to STOP.
I'm going in a couple days to see the nurse and surgeon then hopefully we can set a surgery date! I can't wait!
I'm pretty sure when I see them this week they're gonna say that I need to go on a diet before the surgery so Steve and I have been crossing off a restaurant checklist of places or dishes we won't really be able to eat anymore. A little pasta here, a little mongolian grill there, oh and who can forget Red Lobster's biscuits!?! NOT ME!
It's just that I need to get this out of my system (literally).
I've been refraining from buying any clothes since hopefully I'll be too small for them in a month or two. It's just that I've only got these one pair of jeans that I've managed to completely wear out. Yeah, it's called chafing.....there's only a few threads between my thighs that are holding on to dear life!
Hold on little buddies....just a little bit longer!
