Hmm. I'm Lola, Heaventush!:kiss2: Anita

Randy: Sounds like you had a really good time. I enjoyed seeing you guys. Your pic is lovely!

Courtney wasn't looking forward to coming, but after she met everyone, she couldn't stop talking about how neat everyone was! She is a bit more supportive of LB than she was before. Thanks for helping me to win her over. She and my Mom are my biggest fans; it would be a tough process without their support.

All of the pics are wonderful! I'm so glad I was able to spend time with some wonderful folks. Of course, special thanks to the great photography; the couples pics are really nice.

I'm coming!:clap2:

I eat more, and move less. I often put other's needs ahead of my own. I end up eating late at night. l usually eat big portions. I don't eat often enough. I take lots of meds that add extra weight, or make me hungry. I like exercise, but after working out for months at a time and losing 10 lbs, I get discouraged. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to have the band as my helper, my tool.

Thanks. I'm looking at the Baylor Dallas program with Dr. Kuhn and associates.

I just talked to my insurance, UHC. They will cover 90% for in-network docs. I would love to hear suggestions from some successful Dallas-area Bandsters. Thank you for your valuable feedback!

Congratulations, KennyStang! I am in the process of getting approved by UHC as well. You are never too young to be healthy.:confused:

This is Anita, a pre-bandster. I'd like to come and meet y'all.

Bless you on tomorrow! I said a little prayer...

Bless each of you for encouraging those of us who are considering the lap band. I spent way too much time reading the complications thread, and got scared. The pictures, the notes, the progress reports are sooo powerful and positive. I'm calling United Health Care tomorrow!

I loved your message-from the quote at the bottom to the advice about complications. Too late-I read most of the complications forum, until I realized that many entries were by the same people. I want to be informed, but in a balanced way. I am interested in the monthly meetings; I think it will help me feel less isolated about my lap band process. Most of my family and friends have never heard of lap band, or they feel that I am just fat and lazy. Thanks for your encouragement:p

I am so glad to find DFW support. Thanks!
