New.. Just introducing myself.

Hi everyone.. My name is Angie. I am very new to the Lap Band. I just went to a seminar and took the first step (filling out the paper work) to seeing if I can really get this done. I have been very heavy for about 12 years now and I am tired of failing every diet I ever try. I'm so worried that my Insurance won't cover the procedure and not sure what I'm going to do if that happens. I feel like I am at the end of my rope and I desperately need some help with this. I will be 33 this year. I am 310 pounds and 5'5". I have a little two year old that depends on his Mama to be there for him and I have a husband who is worried sick about me.

So this is the first step. I am hoping to find time everyday to get on here and read all about the lap band and find out as much info as I can.

Welcome!

I'm not banded yet myself but will be very soon. This website is full of information and hundreds (if not more) different view points with pros and cons and tons of expeirence. I have learned a lot on here in preparing me for my adventure. Some of it is intimidating and scary while some is refreshing and uplifiting. I have seen a lot of support on here from members and they are very resourcesful.

Again welcome and good luck on your approval, I hope for you and your family you are approved!! :smile2:
