Im so glad that I dont feel like the only one about my love affair with food. I havent even been banded yet and already trying to prepare myself.

This has been one of the hardest decisions that I have made in my life, to have the lap band. I have been thinking about this for at least 5-6 years and finally decided that I want to do it. My problem is my parents. Although they know that I have been wanting to do this for years, my dad (who wont say it directly to me) told my mom that he hasn’t seen any real effort on my part to want to lose weight consistently for 6 months. I don’t live with them, but I do go over to their house. My mom agrees with him, but she wants me to be healthy. She is very negative in doing so, but I know ultimately she wants me to be thin and healthy. I live in an apartment, don’t have any collateral worth the amount of the surgery, my financing options are very slim. My mom dosent want to cosign with me because she dosent want to see in five years I am back to where I was, and nothing to show for it. I am a self pay because I work for the insurance company who denies the procedure. My boss flat out told me I can try to appeal it but it probably wont work. Tomorrow I am going to the doctor, and depressed before Im even setting foot in the door. Its making me question if this is what I really want. Know of any good places to look for financing with not a HUGE APR? :help::faint::help::faint:
