Hi my name is Jessica and I'm 34 yo. My Dr just last week recommended I consult a bariatric surgeon for lap band. IM 206# and BMI is 39. I am scheduled for a learning session next Wednesday afternoon and then I can make appointment with the dr. I just wanted to say hello and thanks in advance for your information!
