Im a 23yr.old nursing student from Northeast Ohio. I've been overweight all my life and every dieting attempt has failed me. I know I need a permanent weight loss solution or I will end up like my grandmother who died from obesity related illness at the age of 55. I am pre-surgery, havent found a doctor or sent a approval request to my insurance company. I'm kind of lost on what steps to take first. I am however attending a seminar at Metro Health Campus in Cleveland at the end of next month to learn more about the Lap-Band procedure. Any tips, suggestions or general guidance as to what steps I should take, how to find a doctor or anything else would be greatly appreciated.
