  1. I had my gall bladder out a couple years ago, and I am possibly having WLS band in April 2014
  2. Hi everyone, I'm a newbie as well. had my first consult 3 wks ago, which included meeting the whole team, Drs nurses dietitians, I did bloodwork a breathing tests and EKG that day. and I also have to do the 6 months with the dietician for insurance. My first appt is next week, I've done a chest X-ray a sleep study, which they said I have mild apnea and snoring, and I also have my upcoming appt for my upper endo on 10/28. I have another appt to see a psychologist and a liver xray, i do have diabetes, osteoarthritis, high triglycerides, but I'm worried my weight and height will not qualify me my BMI is 35?
  3. I am in the insurance process of getting qualified but I have been told " you have such a pretty face you'd be so much prettier if you lost weight, really? and today my sister told me she's praying that I don't get the lapband, I told her don't do that I'm praying I will, and I'm not doing it for you, I'm going to be selfish and do this for myself no matter what she or anyone else feels.
