I started thinking of having surgery after noticing a co-worker that lost so much weight 45 lbs. How did she do it and it is staying off….. I approached her and found out she had the lap-band surgery several months ago. I then went to a free seminar and decided to go on the same journey. My insurance required that I go on a 6 month diet plan and I agreed to start that same month. It has been 5 1/2 months and I have lost 25 lbs. Great - But how to keep it off is another story. I have done this several times in my life. I only hope that my insurance company will approve surgery for me. I hope to have this surgery next month in August. That is the only way I know I will be able to keep this weight off. I want to loose another 45 lbs. I'm going for a stress test today, blood work up and chest X-ray over the next couple of days. I will wait to see if I get approval from my insurance company. The Medical Office I have been going to is great and has lead me all the way…
