Hello Everyone,

My name is Santizzie and my husband and I have 4 children and live in Jax, Fl. We are both getting lap-band surgery. We were told today that our paperwork has been submitted to our insurance company for approval. So we have our hands crossed and are praying for a quick turn around with our approval.

We have Tricare and they are normally pretty fast with the paper work. I'm very excited about our future and can't wait to get started on this journey.

Good Luck to everyone and God Bless you all.

Hi and good luck to you. Hope all goes well for you , are you both getting at the same time ? Just wondering because you are not allowed to lift for 6 weeks plus and you say you have 4 children I find it is the most difficult thing not to be able to lift my 20 month old daughter . I have to get my fiancee out of bed to carry her for me . Just a heads up . Take care .
