I started thinking of having surgery after noticing a co-worker that lost so much weight 45 lbs.  How did she do it and it is staying off….. I approached her and found out she had the lap-band surgery several months ago.  I then went to a free seminar and decided to go on the same journey.  My insurance required that I go on a 6 month diet plan and I agreed to start that same month.  It has been 5 1/2 months and I have lost 25 lbs.  Great - But how to keep it off is another story.  I have done this several times in my life.  I only hope that my insurance company will approve surgery for me.   I hope to  have this surgery next month in August.   That is the only way I know I will be able to keep this weight off.  I want to loose another 45 lbs.  I'm going for a stress test today, blood work up and chest X-ray over the next couple of days. I will wait to see if I get approval from my insurance company.  The Medical Office I have been going to is great and has lead me all the way…
