I'm also new to the website and trying to figure out things. I'm waiting for Insurance approval, but when I first starting reading posts I got a little scared but after doing a lot of research and reading more posts the are way more good one's than bad ones. It's seems like there is good support here. I know my doctor uses the REALIZE band I didn't know there was different ones???? I learn something new every time I'm on the site. I hope we all have great success with the Band.
