Which hospital are you going through? Also, do you know anything about financing? I was also possibly looking at that as a payment option... i KNOW my insurance won't cover it. It won't cover anything it seems haha.

<p>Hello All,</p> <p> </p> <p>I know several of you have said that you went through Dr. Malley in Kansas. I am signed up to attend a seminar next month and am VERY ready to go forward with the process... my only question is that mine will be a self-pay so I am curious as to how long... and how much I will be looking at. Any insight on Dr. Malley is appreciated!</p> <p> </p> <p>Allyson<img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/confused.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Confused" smilieid="11" class="inlineimg" /></p> Should be Dr. Malley in the title

Hello All, My name is Allyson and I am 25 years old. I currently live in Council Bluffs, IA. I have been overweight my entire life. My highest weight was in 2004 when I reached 291lbs. My weight has been a constant roller-coaster as long as I can remember. Currently I weigh 264. I have read and followed this site for quite some time. I am both motivated and encouraged by many of your stories. I never considered weight loss surgery as an option until I began to research the lap-band procedure. My main questions are... how do I begin the process... I have been researching and I feel this is something I want to further explore. I have bcbs of iowa insurance and have read that many of you have been able to be approved. If not approved... I am willing to pay the cost out of pocket. I just want to know how you all began the process of finding a doctor, weighing the options, etc. I have tried weight watchers, atkins, slim fast, every diet IMAGINABLE. Some diets gae results... but only temporary. I am willing to travel for the sugery... have also heard good things about Malley Surgical in Kansas City. Just needing a little guidance. Thanks Allyson
