Step One: A Decision Made

Well, about 6 weeks ago, my husband and I attended a seminar for Lap Band Solutions led by Dr. Scott Stowers. In the ensueing weeks I have found out that my insurance has an exclusion for bariatric surgery. My wonderful hubby told me that he would support what ever decision I made and would be there for me every step of the way. (I so love my hubby!) As a result, I am going to be a self-pay patient. I have my appointment with Dr. Stowers on Dec. 22nd. Hopefully my surgery will be in January. I am very excited.

Congrats on starting your journey. My surgery is scheduled for Jan so we will likely be walking the same road at the same time.

Congratulations to you. I had my surgery on Oct. 23, 2009. We will save you a seat on the losers bench.

I too will be banded in January. Good luck to you! I'm sure everything will go smoothly.
