Hi I am just starting my WLS journey. I am 23 years old and have a BMI of 55.7... I am dealing with all the insurance stuff right now. It is so stressful, but I know it will work out. I hope to get to know all of you better..

hello back!

I think I started around the same BMI as you, though 2 years older, hahaha. It's not an easy journey, but I think it's worth it. 3 weeks ago, I weighed 30lbs more...its all just unbelievable. Unfortunately, I have crappy student insurance, so I bypassed all the stuff you are about to go through and funded it myself. Best of luck!:tongue2:

Thanks for the reply.. Congrats on the 30 lbs you will never see again. I am excited but super nervous.. Insurance is pending so I should hear in the next couple of weeks.. Good luck

Hey! I started at a BMI of 74 at the age of 30 this past Apr. I am due to have surgery on Aug 20. I am now at a BMI of 63 and have lost 70lbs in the last 3 months. Congrats on your decision to have the surgery! Best of luck!

Hello!! I am glad you have decided to get a band. I know how hard it can be going thru all the insurance stuff but it is worth it. I was banded on June 29th and just had my first fill, I can't wait for my next fill so I can get to me "sweet spot" :tongue2:
