Hey everyone! I've been researching lap band as a tool to help me to get to my weight loss goal. I'm 26 191 lbs with a BMi of 37. I have to do something and like I said I think lap band is the tool I need. Just wanted more info from people who have gone through it as what all you do and go through as you decide this is what you want to do. Didn't know what all you had to do to lead up to your surgery. Any Info will be appreciated:)

Called my insurance today. It does cover lap band!

Thanks Daisy:) I really think this is my best choice as of all other diets have failed! Congrats on your surgery! How are you feeling? My insurance kicks in June 1st so I'm so excited to make the call to see if it's something they cover!

I think we've all been through that vicious cycle. Losing weight, then gaining it all back, and then some. 13 days post op and I feel really good. I am measuring my food, getting myself on more of a schedule and taking it slow. I am so happy to hear your insurance covers the band. Feel free to message me any time with questions.

I've always been on a diet and it never works. I was a nanny for four years and it was a extinct schedule and most of our meals came from a drive through. I'm ready for a set schedule. I'm ready to do social things with my friends that aren't just always dinner. Eating is always the social thing in my life. I called my insurance and I has a 200 deductible and they pay 90 percent after te deductible. It kicks in June 1st so I'm going to try and change my plan bf then to avoid the deductible. Should've paid more attention in picking my plan lol also once my insurance kicks in I can use it for lap band. I don't have to wait any certain amount of time. Now to research a seminar to go to:)

How is the diet bf and what have u managed to get down after? I'm so exited for us all:)))

I thought I would call my insurance to see they do not cover the lap band. that takes care of that. lol. Kind of figure that would happen, I never get that lucky

Going to a seminar June 5th!

Be sure to check out support groups in your area while at the seminar. You can meet people in person who have gone through this and those that are just starting.
