Hi, im tyler. Im 17 years old and Im ready to get the lap band. I have done pretty much all the steps i just have to get approved by my insurance company now....Im very nervous. I feel like im ready for this because i have done a lot of research by reading blogs and watched so many videos on peoples journeys. its all very inspiring and i was wondering how many other minors are doing this surgery here...? i would love any type of words of wisdom and support! =]
