Hey Busmomma,
Thanks for replying to my post. It's funny because I ended up reading afterward some of the postings on the forum and read about your "bathroom" issues prior to surgery. I'm really glad that in the end you didn't regret doing this surgery and that you aren't strugling too much with "emotional eating" or any eating issue that you might have had before.
I'm about to book the surgery date for the end of may but I'm simply afraid that I won't be able to control my cravings and pulsions even with the band and end up being frustrated because I won't be able to eat all type of foods. (I was told that some people can't eat bread, pasta, potatoes, ect. because it get caught in the band).
I'm sure it's all worth it in the end but with my depression and all I sometimes have a hard time being positive.
Thanks for sharing part of your experience with me and good luck to you for the rest of your journey!
Marie
