I am a married mother of four who has always struggled from being overweight. My son would always tell me that my size was not healthy and offered his techniques and solutions for my successful weight loss. I have done weight watchers, personal gym memberships and diet pills with no success. After putting me on another blood pressure medication, my doctor told me that if I did not get the weight off of me that I would be looking at Diabetes. I did not want to let my family down by being miserable and unhealthy. I refuse to let the weight continue to hold me hostage and decided something more drastic was needed. After doing my research in December 2004, I decided I would get the lap band the upcoming year, but unfortunately I had waited too late. My insurance company decided they would not cover the procedure anymore. So every year at enrollment time I would check to see if the surgery was covered and guess what it wasn't. Six years later here I am paying out of pocket for the procedure that was well worth it, not just for me but for my family.
