Hey, I've been using this site as one of my research tools. I'm loving all the info. I plan on getting banded 1/1/2011 (or sometime around the 1st of the year). Going to seminar on 10/12. Good luck!!!

Hi, I have been thinking about getting banded for about 3 years now. I dont really look it, but I'm 271lbs 5'7. I'm 28 years old and I have some questions for people who have already gotten banded. 1. Is loose skin unaviodable. If so is it different for everybody? 2. I have united Health Care they will pay 80%. Is there an estimate of out-of-pocket expenses I can gt from anyone? I'm using my flex spending account to pay for it so I need to know how much to put in it. 3. As you loose weight can you see your access port? 4. How long did it take you to reach your goal weight? 5. Does anyone regret it and why? Thanks for all you help.
