My inability to control my weight has brought me here.  I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in January of this year and high cholesterol in March of this year.  I have already had enough.  While I only take one pill a day for each affliction, I feel imprisoned and I have no one to blame but myself.  After a little soul searching, I came to the realization that I need help with my weight loss and lap band seems to be the obvious choice.  I went to the initial consultation and asked several questions of the staff and started to become assured of the decision I am making.  Once I found out my insurance  covers the procedure and was told of the hoops I must jump through to get this thing done, I got the party started with my second appointment which is tomorrow.  During this appointment, I will have a psychiatric evaluation, blood work, and so on and so forth.  I am so excited.  I want to chat with others who have gone through what I am about to go through.  So that's my story for now.
