Hey guys and gals I am pretty new to this forum thiugh I've had a membership probably for many years i havent been around. A little about me I am 30 years old and have been trying to have the lapband for about the past 10 years but for many different reasons things didnt work out till now. My highest weight was 385 on April 15th 2011 im currently sitting at 366 I just finished my 6 month supervised diet and nutrition and psyche eval and we have submitted to insurance. I am super excited that it seems to be my time to finally get this done. I have a lot of support from my family and actually my twin sister has already gotten her approval to have the band done as well so we will be going through this togehter. I hope and pray for a quick approval to this so I can go ahead and get the ball rolling even more.
