Hey Everyone....My name is Danielle and I am gettin banded on april 14th! Yay! Good luck to everyone!

Hey My name is Danielle and I'm from mass too. I'm 22 years old and my bday is also in august (haha too funny). I just started the whole proccess. I have my nutritional consult on monday and then everything will be complete to send for insurance approval. I am very excited and nervous too! Can I ask where are u gettin the surgery done? Good Luck!

Hi Angie, Wow you sound just like me, I seem to not be able to break the 220 lbs mark either and if I do I only lose a little and then its back up to 220 lbs. I am also 5'6. I met with my surgeon yesterday and if was the most amazing experience ever. In the morning before I went I had such anxiety, and for the first time questioned if this is what I wanted to do. However, as soon as I talked with the nurse and surgeon they anwsered all my questions (which was a lot). As far as the I know they go by the weight you are at the first visit for insurance approval and they may want you to get off 5-10 lbs prior to surgery. One more things the most questions I had was also about fills and the nurse explained that it starts filled and that sometimes there are paitients who never need to get one fill, they determine if you need a fill by asking a buch of questions about your intake of food weeks after surgery. I hope some of my anwsers were helpful and if if you have any more feel free to ask. I wish you the best of luck as you begin this journey. I can't even describe the magnitude of excitement you are going to feel after your go to your consultation. Good Luck! - Danielle
