Hi there, I'm Meagan. I had gone to see my PA last week about getting on a weight loss med, and she recommended the band instead due to a few other health issues that I've got.

My referral to the GI was just approved yesterday and I'm in process of making an appointment for my initial consult. My gut reaction at first was no way, no more surgeries, but after looking into this and seeing everybody's progress, I'm all for it now. :confused: I've been discussing it with my husband, and he's on board too. Wow.

I'm so excited that this is becoming a real possibility, and that I have skinny in sight!

Hello from south of you across the Red River. I am also just starting. Self pay because company sponsored insurance doesn't cover it. Hope to have it all together for surgery in mid-March
