HI I'm Kim and I am at the very beginning of this journey. I have an appt with my Dr. to request the surgery and get a referral to a surgeon. I am very excited but I don't even know if my insurance will cover it. We are at a new year July 1 so I don't know yet. I was covered under the old policy so hopefully it will on the new one. God wiling it will be Januaury. I am presently on Weight Watchers, started yesterday so I am on the diet process. I at one time was scheduled to the gastric bypass but found out a month before that I was pregnant. I'm glad I didn't get it done because I am a nurse and cared for those patients and there were a lot who had complications. I think banding is the right way for me to go. A friend did it but it was sucessful. I hope that doesn't happen to me. I look forward to sharing with you on this journey and any help or advice you can give me for prep would be greatly appreciated. Kim
