<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I am self-pay because I do not have a BMI over 35.&nbsp; Everything is relative though, and I am the heaviest person in my family, so I opted for self-pay.&nbsp;&nbsp; Have been thinking about it for years.&nbsp; Should have done it sooner, but wanted my children out on their own and life to calm down first.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Had lap band surgery this morning.&nbsp; Been sleepy all day, but my husband is reminding me to take deep breaths and to get up and walk around, which I am trying to do.&nbsp; Have not taken pain med - in liquid form, because I know it will make me sick.&nbsp; Dry throat - am used to drinking a&nbsp; LOT of water every day.&nbsp; Am drinking an ISO drink right now for my protein.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
