I have been overweight for as long as I can remember. In 2001, I lost 40 pounds using Weight Watchers and exercising. Since then I have regained almost 60 pounds. Currently, I am at my highest weight. I am strongly considering Lap Band. I am too afriad and I think that GB is just not for me. In addition to needing to lose weight. I am trying to get pregnant. We are having difficulty with that, and my doctor told me today that I needed to lose at least 30 pounds, before I start aggressively taking fertility drugs. I agree I need to lose a substantial amount of weight.
Like most everyone else, I have tried everything, WW, Jenny Craig, Medifast, LA Weightloss, NutriSystem, Dr. Gupta, Dr. Beale, appetite surpressants. Right now my life is a revolving circle. I am stressed about my weight, so I eat. Then I am depressed because I ate, so I eat some more. I find myself eating and really not being hungry. I beleive that I am an emotional eater.
I don't beleive that exercise and limiting food alone without surgery will be successful for me. So I know I need the surgery. I am just concerned about the surgeon. If anyone out there absolutely love their surgeon, please let me know. I have all of my current doctors because of referral. So far, so good.
