Hello....When I first started thinking about the surgery I had Atena and I knew from talking to may others that atena wouldnt not approve the surgery till you did a 6mth prgm....so I change my ins last year to UHC because everyone I knew who had them said they appove with no problem.....I went for my 1st apt in Feb with my surgon he put me thu all kinds of test and classes and in april I was told I was approved.....I had my surgery on May 21st.....I am 42 and I am diebetic..........I dont think you will have any problems getting approved........Since my surgery I have lost 54lbs.......that is n 4 months....Just remember everybody loses different......... Good Luck and keep in touch Glenna from Ky -

My name is Glenna and I had the lap band done on May 21st this year. I am from Ky and my Dr was Dr. Sonninstine. So far I have lost 53 lbs. I do have a question for some of you that had it before me. I have had 2 fills and even though I lose( 11lbs in 3 wks with first fill and 10lbs in 4wks with sec) I have never really had any restrictions.. I still eat slow and only 4oz ech meal do you think that is reason? Shouldnt I feel something? I have noticed if I do eat I get some pain in my upper back does that sound right? Any advice I could get from someone that it has been 6mths or longer I would apprecate it. Also does It sound like I am doing good 53lbs in 4 months? Thanks in advance for your :help:
