  1. Hi guys, my name's Leticia and I was banded on 2/18/10. I've lost 70 pounds but have been stalled for about 5 months, and it's very frustrating. I started doing weight watchers last week and have lost 1 pound so far. I'm hoping this will help me get back on track!

    I don't have many before pictures, I'm always the one taking the pictures....prefering not to be in them.
  4. I had my surgery Feb 18, 2010 and had a hiatal hernia repaired too. I felt like I was dying the first 2 days or so. I was almost back to normal though by day 6. Good luck!
  5. I started my journey at 292 and had a BMI of 50 and also have no comorbidities. I also have Blue Cross Blue Shield. I was approved within 1 week of submission. Nowadays it seems like the insurance companies would prefer to pay for surgery than have to fork out more money in the end with the high cost of obesity. That's all I can really tell you.
