Hello everyone. I was looking for a support buddy up here in the desert. I am awaiting approval but whatever stage you are in....I would love to chat.

Hi, I'm rolanda from Chicago, I was 276.4, before surgery, now I'm 262.2, it's crazy how slow my weight is coming off, so I'm starting to get a little discouraged, but my doctor says everything is fine. I just got my first adjustment dec7,2012. Hopefully more weight will come off now. I hope everything goes well for you. My insurance paid the full amount for my procedure,less my $225 deductible. It's hard to wait to find out if they will pay or not, they took over two weeks to get back to me.

What kind of adjustment? Did you have the lap band? I am excited but am praying my insurance will aprove me. I think I will have an answer this week. I hope your adjustment goes well. Let me know....and of you nèed someone to talk to....so do I.
