My name is Valerie. I have talked to my doctor about having the Lap Band surgery. I meet with my doctor on Tuesday to do all the blood work before he refers me to a clinic. I have some hoops to jump through for my insurance to cover but I think it will happen. I feel a bit nervous and scared about going through it. I do feel, however, that this is a good choice for me. :lovechoc:
