  1. My insurance doesn't cover the procedure I'm a little bummed.
  2. I haven't been banded yet but want to get into good habits now so I will be prepared. But I have no clue how to shop and cook for me ( future bander) and my spouse ( non bander). Any ideas?
  3. So when I go to the doctor, he/she will give me a pre op and post op diet plan to follow? And I'd like to talk to someone in person and how they overcame the huge change. Any one from the Houston, Tx area? I know it isn't a quick fix and it is a huge lifestyle change for me.
  4. Hello everyone. As of right now Im not banned, but wanted to get more info and also waiting on the insurance to approve. I am looking for support from others in my area. I have my boyfriend and mom that are my rocks and know I'm interested in the surgery but I'm kinda scared to tell anyone else. I don't want them to judge me and try to talk me out of it. I want to be healthier and happier. Is there anyone out there that can help me become more informed so when I do decide to tell others I can give them all the facts?
