Hello everyone my name is Eva. I'am 30 years of age, I'am in my junior year of nursing school, and I just got married September 3,2005. I decided to have the lap band surgery about 7 months ago. My husband's insurance covers the surgery at 90%, and I was approved without any problems. My surgery date is scheduled in December 2006.

I 'am so excited!!!!:clap2:

Hi Eva - Welcome to LBT Congratulations on the marriage and the decision to be banded. It seems to be a rarity over there to be approved for banding without jumping through hoops, so you've done well!

If you're looking for support, advice or just a common place for other people going through the same thing, you've come to the right place. The ladies and gentlemen here have helped me so much over the past year, be it just listening to me whinge, helping me decide if I need to see a doctor, if what I'm feeling is normal, etc.

Jump right in and start posting - we won't bite

Welcome Eva and congratulations on your banding approval.

Someone has just begun a December bandsters thread in the General Lap Band Discussion forum. You might want to check that out.
