Well I called my ins today and they pay for 80% of it didn't seem like it was going to be to much I have to do I will find out Friday more in detail on what is required by me , have a appt for Sep 13th

Thanks to everyone replying to this all this make me want it today I can't wait to change my life style and lose the weight I have tried to lose for years

So you got the band taken out and now your getting the bypass

The only thing that scares me about the sleeve is removing part of your stomach

What about getting use to not being able to eat as much or not being able to take big bites or big gulps of drink , does it just take time to get use to ?

If you had it to do over would you get the lap band or would you go with something else like the sleeve maybe. I'm doing my research on the lap band I just have so many question like can you feel the band.does it bother you while doing any activitys playing with kids , exercise,sex just any everyday activity. Do you have any regrets??

Sombra that is very true but just wish he was for me doing it and would support me

Toad please.keep me updated I wish you luck

Toad, who are you getting ins with

Thanks everyone I can't wait to start my process

That's me I'm 25 and I feel way older I hurt.I don't.want.to do anything my knees hurt.my whole body hurts, I have sit him down and talk to him about all that different stuff and its like he.really don't.understand but in the end I'm doing it no matter what I have to do or do by myself

Well that what I've tired to tell him I mean I don't even.want.to go do anything It seems.like I stay sick all the.time I get.out of breath easy I'm very very unhealthy

My boyfriend and I fight over this surgery he calls it my stupid surgery he think I am crazy for even wanting it done. I try to tell him how unhappy I am about myself he said.it does not bother him that I look just fine , but I think differnt I have no confident and I'm so unhappy he just don't understand and.it really hurts me.and my feeling , do you think I'm being mean about it , FYI I do appreciate he like me for who I am

Me to I want this surgery very bad.like that's all I can think about lol

Thanks Lori

Lori do you think there would be a waiting period since my policy is new but now my boyfriend has had ins.with them.for six years , I've heard there is like a 6 mo waiting period to file

I just got uhc I am hoping they cover the surgery and there is not.a.waiting period to file for the surgery, do any of you know if there is.

What is a updated band

Well I just got ins so I just don't.know if I should call a doctor and.let them check my ins or me call my ins , I just know Mexico is sounds so much faster and cheaper

Well if I do it in Mexico I think it has to be self pay not sure about that , but I have thought about doing self pay but I just got insurance through united healthcare so I don't even know if.I could do a claim yet

Hi i am wanting the lap band done really bad , but just don't know how to start the process like doctor to use I have thought about going to Mexico just don't know where.to start

Thanks

I just got untied healthcare through my fiance how long do you think I would need to wait before I can start the lap band process
