Hi, this is my 1st post. I started w/ a new primary care physician today. For the 1st time ever I've mentioned to a doctor that I would be interested in a lap band. I'm sort of nervous now that I've started the ball rolling. I want to find out as much as possible w/out being scared out of my wits. I want to loose just about 100 pounds.

Hi LaRay and welcome to LBT! You have come to a good place to find information and inspiration. The whole process can be overwhelming when you first get started, but hang in there, learn what you can, and good luck to you!

Hi LaRay. I am starting the process too, and also want to loose about 100 pounds. I just happened upon this site, and I'm so glad that I did! I have learned more here than anywhere. I went to a seminar given by the Dr last week, and found out yesterday that my insurance would cover me. I'm really new here, but I've been reading all the different responses and qusetions and have learned so much! I really think being here made my mind up.

Good luck to you

Molly
