Starting out!
Hi all, I am just starting out on my journey and will definitely need support. Since I decided to do the research on the lap-band procedure, I have been checking out this site. I have gained some valuable insights from everyone here. Today is my first official day starting my new way of life- I have waited and wondered many years about the surgery but never had the guts to actually pursue it until now.This morning I went to a center by my house for a seminar. My DH went with me and I appreciate him for it. I am officially nervous about my insurance (BCBS/IL) having read all of the info here.my next step is to fill out my paperwork and get it back to the surgeons office.The surgeon said they do the six month diet in their office bcause they know what theinsurance companies need.I am getting a little excited at the thougt of being less than 300lbs.I have been overweight my whole life but after my 3kids, it really went down hill...I have a BMI of 51 and hypertension! I will post as I make progress..
