Hello everyone, My name is Lisa and I live in Oregon, I am just starting the process for the Lab band, I have made my first step and went to the informational seminar. I also checked with insurance and I'm covered. I will have an apt on the 27th for my doctor to write the referral..Very nervous and very hopeful at the same time..I have been overweight the majority of my life. I have three kids, 6,4, and 2..I want to be here for them...I don;t have any questions at the moment, just wanted to introduce myself, I'm so glad there is a place for me to come to for information...thank you..look forward to any advice..
