:)Good morning everyone, I am finally getting the process underway:whoo:I went to my first consult with the surgeon on Friday the 28th as well as to get cleared with the pulmonologist the same day and was cleared!!!!!! So now all I have to do is see the pysicologist and nutritionist to get approval. Well I know that will be fine, I am just worried about the insurance hope they will approve soon:confused: I have no medical problems associated with the weight but my family history is pretty bad. I just don't want to end up with all those problems. does anyone know if maybe my insurance will approve me based just on my BMI Which is 48.1 alone? I know my insurance only needs to see the psch dr and nutritionist with a THS. I am just so nervous that they wont approve with no bad medical history! I have been this way all my life and have tried everything to lose weight been going on 17 years now since I was 12. I feel real positive some days but others i am so scarred they wont approve:faint:I cant wait to get this done. I am so happy I found this web site it has really been a big help to me and I look forward to meeting some new friends on here. Good luck to you all who are in the process like me and congrats to the ones who have already had their band put in :clap2:

I to have no medical problems except for my fatness and i was approved that doesn't mean anything tho cause insurance companys tend to nitpick if you know what i mean hope all goes well,
