Hi Everyone,

My name is Jean and I've been 'lurking' for the last month, taking it all in. Today is a special day for me, so I decided to stop lurking and start posting. The Dr's office called me today and my insurance company has approved my surgery. It's scheduled for September 4th- I'm sooo excited. My lapband journey began in january of this year when I made the call the get signed up for the hospitals WLS information session. It's been a long road since then, but now it seems it's finally coming to end. the road to a new, healthier life is about to begin for me, and I am so thankful that I've been given this second chance. I hope everyone has a good day!
