So, I came home last night and informed my husband of my BIG DECISION! I want the Lap band surgery. He was NOT happy. He feels that I am completely capable of doing it without surgery. So, I told him I was willing to try (again)... I really don't have much choice. It takes 6 months of failed dieting (documented by a physician) to qualify with my insurance. I am willing to give it my all in the next 6 months. I will be very excited if it does work... the thought of surgery terrifies me. The thought of dying terrifies me more though.
So, where do I begin. My highest weight has been 283... I am down to 250 now. My 6 month goal is to make it to 199! That is 51 pounds. I really pray I can do it! I have informed my husband that he has to stay on top of me about this! I can not be trusted to do it alone, I will fail!!! I also have a friend, SK, that is willing to help me avoid surgery too. We are starting to walk 2 xs a week. She is about 6 weeks preggo so she can' exercise as vigorously as she would have liked before and she is definitely trying to avoid packing on the baby pounds.
