  1. For those of you whose insurance paid for your surgery, did it also cover the fills? I am lucky to have insurance that will pay for the procedure, but I didn't ask about the fills. I assume they are covered. I am just beginning the process of researching all this. I am so thankful to have found this site because there are always questions I seem to forget to ask at the time. What about plastic surgery after the surgery? Has anyone's insurance covered this? I doubt mine will. It won't even cover a breast reduction, which I desparately need, without some very obscure criteria. Oh well, if I have the lapband surgery, I shouldn't need a breast reducation--maybe a breast lift!
  2. I am in the beginning stages of researching the procedure. I will be attending a doctor led seminar soon. I currently have no impulse control when it comes to food. I eat what I crave, and when I eat, I eat past feeling full. :hungry: I worry that this will continue after I have the surgery. Did anyone else struggle with these same things prior to surgery? Have you been successful after?:clap2: Also, What do you wish you would have known or done prior to surgery? Thanks, Alysa
