Hello girls !! Bonjour ;-)
Thank you sooooo soooooo soooooooooooo mcuh for your words, help and love
Finally I had a discussion with my mother !!
And it went well too !! I was so afraid to talk about the
lapband with her and it took me hundred tons of courage to open my mouth and explain it ! BUT it was even more easy than in my secret dreams LOL I was totally surprised by her reaction ! I thought she would be afraid, angry,.... but she totally agree with my decision and she told me the only thing she wanted for me is to feel good and have a healthier life with no suffering anymore !! We
even cried in each other arms, it's was very moving because I can't remember when I said to her I love her or hugs her for the last time ! I think it was when I used to be a very young girl !!
Well I can say this decision has several GOOD parts AHAHAHHAHAHA
My sister is a little bit afraid but now she is ok with that ! I told my parents-in-law and they said that the most important is I fell fine and agree with me !!
yes yes yes I'm happy ! for me to tell/explain to all my family as the harder thing ! I am not afraid for the surgery or the "troubles" I should feel with my band, I was afraid to talk ! And girls you gave me the courage and motivation ! I will never thank you enough
I send you tons of smoooooooches !
XOXO

Gastric Banding Surgery
|
 |
The adjustable gastric banding is a restrictive surgical procedure during which a silicone band is placed around the stomach, creating a small pouch. The band includes a balloon that is filled with a nontoxic fluid, most commonly a saline solution; periodic adjustments are performed by a healthcare professional who accesses the balloon via a subcutaneous port.
Gastric band placement, unlike malabsorptive weight loss surgery (e.g. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, Biliopancreatic Diversion, and Duodenal Switch), does not cut or remove any part of the digestive system.
