Hi Fee! I too have to pay about 3000 out of pocket. I had to pay for the nutritionist consultation which was $200 then the psychological evaluation test which was $160 my insurance picked up the rest of that($140). The weight loss workshop here where I live is called obesity to balance I attend that for 2 days in August which is $500. I will also have a bill from the physician for about $2000 after the surgery. .

Hello everyone! I am currently awaiting approval for my lapband procedure! I have done my research long and hard and I feel I have made the right choice! I have been overweight all of my life and I am really excited about the big change! I have read so many of your inspirational stories so far. I am looking forward to posting a ticker to chart my progress. I had to get 2 years of medical history from my specialist along with just the general facts, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, etc. I am a medical care provider and our insurance will approve the procedure it just takes so dang long! I am looking forward to it though thanks to all the posts.

I am new to this site. I am awaiting insurance approval for my lapband surgery. I needed 2 years of previous medical history in order for approval. I know that it will be approved but the waiting is so unbearable. I have read all of your inspirational stories. I just want to be able to live life without high blood pressure and have energy to do the "normal things" in life. Thanks for posting your stories they help more than you know. I am proud of all of you and I don't even know you! Lol
