Well.... this is coming from a guy.... Tell him to either be support or get the fuck away from you.....

Just the fact that you posted here...... I have no doubt you will be great support.....

I hope not..... Because if I can..... I feel that would be the first step to a downward spiral ....

My Dr. Took care of it.... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I sent a request for group Troy Gratt

I am in NJ and have Aetna..... All I was told is I have to do the 6 months of monthly required meetings to be qualified and approved..... I am scheduled for 9/12

Morris County here.... Scheduled for VGS on 9/12.....

Thank you for responding.... Will update as my journey continues....

Yeah..... She feels I am not heavy enough to resort to this... She is worried about our relationship, since most of our interaction is related to eating out... I feel I am heavy enough for this..... plus being Type II Diabetic and sleep Apnea, make this essential .... As far as our relationship, I think we will be fine. We can still go out to dinner, but instead of having 3 courses and still being hungry.... I look forward to ordering just a simple Protein appitizer and being satisfied, and if I am not hungry.... I will have no issues just enjoying good conversation while she finishes her meal....

Well, I have a date.... But wife is really not on board with this decision... I will continue the process, but still not 100% on doing this because I do not want to upset her.... I had my 1st appointment with Dietitian last month.... In April, I will have my appointment with the Pscyh person.... In the meantime, I promised my wife I will just keep on trying to lose the weight on my own...

I spent the day reading thru this forum:ranger:........ way to many posts about bad things....... dont like the odds.:cry.....

I am in Morris County...... I have surfed this board most of the day..... gonna be honest here. The more I read, the more likely I WONT do this..... Not liking the LONG term effects.

Hello all, Well......... its a new year, and I still struggle with my weight. So, here I am, and I am going to look into the Lap-Band procedure. I am 5'10" and weigh about 260lbs When I use the BMI calculator.... about 37 I sleep with a CPAP machine Blood Pressure and Cholesteral are fine Sugars..... starting not to look good. Time to do something.... I will of course do some searching on here to get my feet wet and get some questions answered, but would appreciate any support I can get. My main question will be how to get this covered my insurance.... Thanks all Troy
