Hi everyone I'm just starting out . Finaly have made the choice that I want to go throw with this .. I have a lot of anxieties that I'm fighting like what if I can not control my emotions with out my comferting food , being put under is a big fear of mine and I also have anxiety and I finaly found meds that work and I'm hoping I can still take them afterwards.. I think I'm getting to ahead of myself because I don't even know if my soon to be new insurance will cover the procedure.

whew !! breathe, honey..............breathe !!!!! take a deep breath.................... there , muchhhhhhh better !!! I m glad you made the decision to get healthy, and hopefully your ins. will help you. from what ive heard , taking your regular meds afterwards isnt a prob., going under is easy, and you taking the eating issues one day at a time. the band doesnt take away your craving , you have to make good choices for yourself. the nice thing is the band limits the amount of food you can eat, so if you fill up on healthy foods, theres little room for junk. that being said, you'll get lots of support here,so welcome aboard !

Thank you very much for your reply I'm what you call a over thinker lol I'm very excited that I found this group. I have been reading posts and its great to view the different stories. The positives the negatives and the ups and downs. Lots of support
