Thank you for making that site. I have over 200 lbs pounds to lose. When I first visit my Lapband doctor on 07/24/09 I was 430 lbs (had the surgery on 09/22/09), now I am 365lbs. One step at a time!!

Georgia Girl, I agree the doctor's office should cover the difference. Can you go to a different in-network hospital in a different city?

I was banded on 9/22/09 on 11/30 I had my second fill and I am up to 6 cc. At first I felt some restriction now it has disappeared..,:thumbup:. I am eating more than 2 cups of food. I am waiting for my next fill on 12/29/09. -
Wow Congratulations on your weight loss. Just imagine, people gain weight on the holidays and we are losing weight!! I been down 91 lbs., 24 lbs since the surgery. I am managing everything pretty good, school is over for the holidays so I can really pick up on the exercising. The hardest thing for me is not using food as crutch for everything. I use to eat when I am bored, tired, happy and sad. So, I am doing a lot of meditation and praying to get through the day. For once I am able to focus on myself mentally, physically and spiritually. :thumbup: Hey are you going to post any progress pictures soon?

Wow I feel some restrictions with the 2nd fill (6cc). I only can eat about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of food.

Got my 2nd Fill for the Month. I just found out that I have an AP large lap band -- the one that holds 14 mL of saline. As of right now I have 6 cc in the band. I also lost another 2 lbs. From 395 lbs to 393 lbs!!
