Hi All~

My Name is Shantell. I live in Washington State, 24yrs old. Work Full Time, Mommy Full time. I have been lurking on this Site for about 5months... Decided to finally Join. I think this website is great :wub:

I am currently in the approval Process required by Insurance to get the Lap Band surgery. Right now I am on month three of six. Medically Supervised Weight Loss aka MSWL. So only three months longer and no other requirements are needed except the obvious pre-op stuff.

I enjoy a variety of different activities and Hobbies.

Fun, Loud, Outgoing... and so excited to be here. I look forward to Chatting and getting to know you all on here. :wub:

Welcome, Shantell - hope you can run the pre-op maze as quickly and painlessly as possible. This operation has changed my life, and the site has given me a lot of knowledge and encouragement. Good luck!

Thank you for your words of encouragment I look forward to having this site for support during my Journey.

Take Care

Wish the best of luck! I've just been approved yesterday morning! :grouphug: So I'm on a similar path as you :grouphug:

Take care!
