  1. Hey guys! I was banded on march 15 and just went in for my third fill! I am hoping that the hungers go way and I find my green zone very soon! I have 5ccs in a 14 cc band. So far I have lost thirty pounds and am felling much better. Not as tired all the time. Can't wait to hear more stories from everyone!

  4. Hi Mark, I ended up having to do the 6 month diet for insurance and had no prob. I was surprised on how quickly the insurance came back with an approval. I heard back within two or three hours after the dr office summited it on line. I have BCBS. Had surg on 3/15/12! Good luck and keep your head up!
