Hi everyone. I've been looking at LapBand for years now. I have my first consultation Wednesday with my surgeon and I'm really excited. I have my full medical records and don't think I could prepare any more for this appointment. All records show and document discussions for weight loss with doctors since at least 1998. Even mentions wanting LapBand years ago so hopefully it will all help with the insurance approvals. Just nervous about how long everything will take. I need that edge to my health to push me to lose weight and get more active. I have a BMI of 60.1 with at least 6 co-morbidities. I'm just hoping for surgery soon. Everyone on here seems so supportive and great. Wish me luck.
