So wow, just wow. I was so excited to be approved by my doctor to have the lap band done. It was going to be my fresh start to my new life (what’s left after my ex-husband ran off with another woman leaving with my then 6week old son (who’s now 12months) and now has a house with her up the street from me 5minutes) I was bummed that my insurance wouldn’t cover it but I was still happy to know I was a candidate...

I've applied for 5 different loans to get the procedure done and so far 3 have flat out denied me and 1 approved me for $500, wtf? What is $500 going to do for me? I submitted to have it increased and am waiting on the last company to review my request as well...

Did anyone else have such a hard time getting you approved? I unfortunately don’t have anyone that can co-sign for me and I just refinanced my home to remove my ex-husbands name from everything so I think that’s causing some pain as well...

Anyone have any advice on a company to try? I think at this point I’m going to need to wait a few months to let my credit start building back up after all the hits its have between the 2 different mortgage companies and the 5 loans for the procedure that I've tried.

I feel alot better today, friday was hell and yesterday was rough too. Looks like day by day i'll be doing better, just hungry LOL
