Hiya. Newbie here, banded 5/21. Glad to see a guy's thread here. I won't have a fill by June and don't have much restriction now, but I'm up for a June challenge. I always focus better when it's a competition

Hi there. I've been lurking for a while, reading on all the pros and cons of the lap-band process. Just got word that my insurance has approved the procedure, so I'm scheduled for June 29. I could go as early as May 18, but I have some travel scheduled in early June that would be problematic if I was recovering. Besides, the ex-wife will still be moving out on the 18th, and she doesn't know about this step I don't know how to do the signature thing, but I'm currently 5 foot 9 inches, 271 and 40.1 BMI, headed to a 160 goal. Is a year a realistic timeframe for the goal, if I'm serious about the effort? Any input welcome -- thanks!

:confused: Anyone?

Has anyone here used Dr. Mosier for their procedure? I'm looking at an early May timeframe, and was hoping to get some patients' perspectives on him. So far I'm happy with him and the office. Thanks
