Hello from NJ

Hello There...

My name is Claudia and I'm 26 years old, I'm considering the lap band, I have a appointment with my PCP for a referral, I hope I get approval from the insurance, I really started to have weight issues after I had my daughters.

I would like to know if anybody was approved from the insurance with a IBM less than 34? I'll keep you guys posted after Friday.

Good Luck to all!
