I was banded back in 2011, lost 63 lbs then, lost my job and insurance thus no fills. Found a new job but it didn't cover Bariatric stuff so still no fills. I have gained back 50 of the 63 lbs lost. I now have insurance that will cover but afraid to go to doc for fear of being judged. Where do I start I'm miserable!

Go! Choose yourself -- they are your team. Health professionals are there for you but you've got to call and make the appointment. Do it!

I'm with bandista on this one. You start by making an appt. Try not to fester on their opinions....

YOU are the important patient...they need you too for business .

Best of luck and let us know how they helped you!

I am a nurse...and I can honestly say nothing surprises us or alarms us in any way lol. Do YOURSELF a favor and go in. Get the help you need. You are the only one that can benefit from it and they are there to help you. They may even be able to give you some much needed encouragement. I do my best when I'm checking in weekly with my bariatric nurse.....I need to get back to that...maybe next week!
