wantmybodyback

I am 25 years old. I am about 5"'3', 225lbs.:thumbup: I have had two kids and cant have any more. I have bp issues, breating issues, back pain and I just hate the extra weight I am carrying around since having kids. I used to be a size 5 before kids and now I am like a size 20+. It is hard for me. For the last three years, I have been to gyms, tried pills, so many different diets, and maybe lost like 20 lbs. :thumbdown:Not enough. I dont want to die young. I want to live long enough to see my grand children. I want to know if the lap band would really help me. What cost can I expect? I have Blue Cross and Blue Sheild Insurance, will they cover it? I really need the help. My family suports me with my decessions, I was hoping to make a few friends that could help me with the disicions as well. I have just started some research on the procedure, I will be reading thru the threads to see what others have put. I hope to gain enough information to help me with my decission. Thanks~!:thumbup:
