First appointment and just getting started

[Jacinda 0]

Hello to all my lap-band buddies! I am new to this forum, and I am new to the lap-band itself. I had my first doctors appointment with Doctor Bali of South Charleston, WV and I love him he seems to be a great doctor. I am happy to get the process moving and trying to move it forward fast as possible, but I do have the six month insurance steps so I am doing those and not complaining because that just means in six months I will be on my way to a new lifestyle and I can not wait until the new me starts to come out! So I could really use support and some friends so please email me at JacindaThomas4@gmail.com!

Congrats on making the first BIG step!! Personally the first dr visit was my biggest problem I was nervous and kind of ashamed. I don't know everything about the band yet as I was just banded 1/17, but if you have any questions I'll be happy to try and answer them. This is a great site it has helped me alot in he last month! Good luck!
