    LapBand Fill Video

    Oh, well that makes sense. Thanks for sharing! I had watched a video of the surgery, now I've seen a fill. Looks like I'm ready to go! :clap2:

    LapBand Fill Video

    wow. thanks for that....I've watched the surgery done online but the whole process of the fill has kind of been a scary thought for me. It looked painful...but you didn't jump or wince or anything....that needle was big!!! what was the reason for him pumping the saline in and out of the syringe before leaving it in there? Are you sure that didn't hurt like hell?? lol
  6. I was so disapointed to see that there was only one post under the Alabama board!! I'm from alabama and will be having my lap band surgery in Birmingham by Dr. Schmitt. I would love to hear from any other Alabamaians!!! Let's represent guys! haha.

    Hi guys!!! I was so happy to find this thread!! I'm just 20 years old. I went to the seminar for lap-band tonight and will probably be having surgery in August. I'd love to hear from any of you who had surgery in your twenties. You can reach me via email at AEB6831@aol.com. I'm available for instant messenging at AEB6831 as well. Hope to hear from some of you guys soon!!!
  8. Hey guys! I just wanted to introduce myself! I just joined this board tonight. I have been a member of obesityhelp.com for several weeks now and decided to expand my learning! My name is Amy and I live in Alabama. I'm only 20 years old but I have decided this surgery is right for me. I will be attending a seminar tomorrow evening in Birmingham to get the process started. I will be selfpay due to the fact that my BMI is only 36, and BCBS of Alabama doesn't cover this surgery for ANYONE. I've struggled and struggled in my short life so far with weight loss. I find it impossible to keep weight off!!! I have a lot of depression from my weight and my psychologist was the first to suggest I look into this surgery. My parents have been rather supportive and are going to help me pay for the surgery. I hope to learn a lot from you guys here as well as the folks on obesityhelp.com. Any advice is greatly appreciated!!!!
