No I have not. I am in program at Lahey clinic. I met with nurse once, nutritionist twice, and finished 4 week psychiatric behavior mod program. I need a 6 month medically supervised weight loss program before getting approved. I am trying to get the paper work filed for that.

I am having dinner with the relatives that owned the plastic chair I broke. He is a gastroenterologist. I will be looking for the most sturdy chair when I walk into the room. I will talk to him about lap band at his hospital. -
I live in eastern Mass. I thing there is a bariatic program at UMass Medical in Worcester. Play their game. They hold all the cards. If you need a recomdation from your PCP. Then get one from your PCP.

I am in the program at Lahey. Looks like a summer 2013 band for me. -
What is he cost of a self pay band. I am not getting a good vibe from my insurance company.

My insurance company has the same requirement ( I Can ChangeProgram) Frustrating, but I think it is a good thing. I am in the program at my hospital, but, do not think I am getting enough information as to the lap band life style.

As a matter of fact it happened another time. Always with the most judgmental people in attendance. -

I did break a chair at a distant relative's house. The look on their faces was disgusted. Very Embarassed. At other relatives houses... I arrive early and select a sturdy looking chair. NOT THE 150 year old antique! -
Where did you go for 6 month pre op diet?
