  1. I am currently new to this group, and I have been to the lap band seminar in September of this year just waiting one more month before my six month diet is complete from my doctor and I can get approved through insurance so I am trying to wait until I get a date for my surgery I am excited about this I know I will succeed from this I have a supportive husband and family I have put a lot of thought and time into this and I am almost approved through my insurance so I am thinking of having it done at the beginning of the new year. Any information on lap band from anyone that is going through this or has already been I would appreciate it currently the only health problem I have is asthmah, and lack of energy how do I get motivated to start losing before surgery? I am currently 325 lbs and 5'6'' and I have two small children to run after it is hard carrying all of this weight. Please any information would be nice Thankyou.:cool::confused::confused:
