Hello Hrdlywrkin. I have just started on my approval process... Dr. Virginia McGrath-Weaver will be my surgeon ... I have seen my Psycologist and have been approved...I will be going to my second weigh-in appointment Monday so I will have 4 more to go... I know 3 people who have used Dr. Weaver and love her... but none of them have had the band... If there is any thing I can do to help let me know...

Hello, I have just found this site... I have read a few it the treads and this seems like a friendly informative group... This is what I have been looking for... I am from Memphis, TN... I am in the early states of the process... it will be spring of '09 before I can have my surgery but I am trying to find out all I can about the surgery... I am going Monday to see a psychologist.. to see if she will give the approval for me to go on with the next process .... I will not see the surgeon until right before the surgery .... this in itself makes me a little nervous.. :smile2: looking forward to becoming a member of the lap band community....:thumbup:What Is a Tag????
