jackbandinva 0 Posted May 6, 2011 Hello. I've been researching wls for about 5 yrs. This year I have insurance to pay for it. I wanted the vsg but was denied 3 times by insurance. I was approved for bypass in 1 day and after considering it for a long time I switched to the band. I've done all my pre-op testing had my nutrition class last night and am less than 2 weeks away. Just looking for support and friends to chat with. I've been on obesityhelp for 5 years but they don't have a mobile site or an app. So its hard to use from my phone. This mobile site seems nice so far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
