I am glad to hear all went well and am looking forward to your full recovery so that we may hear your point of view. You seem so passionate and I am sure you will be back to your old/new self soon! Good luck to the future Band New You! ~Dawn (preband)

I am so happy for your Alexandra! I love your posts and am praying that all goes well....which I am sure will! Keep us updated. I cant wait to hear from you point of view how the process is going! Respectively! ~Dawn (preband)

I would be proud too! ~Dawn (preband)

I still believe that you should wait till you have lost a substancial amount of weight. No matter what your doctor recommends...there is NO denying that it is MUCH healthier for you and the baby to wait till you are a healthier weight. Good luck and overall it is your decision. Healthy vs Now? ~Dawn (preband)

Hi everyone! Congrats to everyone on there band new life and to those who will be on the journey soon! I live in Grand Prairie, in between Dallas and Ft. Worth. i am at the beginning of my journey--still researching a lot of things. Hope everything goes well for everyone! ~Dawn:)

I agree with Band Midwife...you should wait for a healthier you so that you can have a healthier pregnancy and baby. i have heard that losing weight also increases fertility...so maybe it will be easier to concieve then. Just be open and honest with you husband that it is better in many ways to wait, you and your furture baby! Good luck! ~Dawn

Congrats!!!!! I am so glad to hear that everything went well!! Keep us updated on what your feeling after your first fill. ~Dawn (preband)

What region/state do you live in? And do you think the standard made a difference verses Prime? When did you get banded? Thanks!! ~Dawn (preband, Tricare Prime Region 6, Texas)

Military Tricare?

Thanks! I will probably go to one of the next seminars since he is on my insurance. Congrats on your first fill! That sounds so exciting (I am easy amused)! I cant hope that I will be in that position soon. Thanks again! ~Dawn

Did your insurance not cover those expenses? I was hoping that they have a psych doc on my plan so that it woudl be covered also. Did you have to use someone that they choose for both things? Thanks! ~Dawn:D

To anyone who has used these doctors-----any info, advice, suggestions, tidbits...anything would be greatly appreciated! I know that you have to pay upfront at the OMC. I have requested info. Just looking for experienced info =)! Thanks ~Dawn

Babs...I agree with Alexandra, that was a GREAT letter! Thank you for taking the time to write such an excellent letter. ~Dawn

Alexandra---you make me laugh almost every time I read your posts.....keep'em coming, they are good reading! And you are absolutely right about the "keep'em coming" thing....but you never know what someone might do for the LAST FILL. Sounds scary when you put it like that. They make it sound as if youll never eat again. Anyway, thanks for the reply! ~Dawn (pre-band)

I got a little excited and did not notice Region 1----thanks for responding though----hopefully it will go as well as yours did. Although my BMI is 40. Thanks again! ~Dawn
