[vballmom 0]

I have been reading the post for months waiting for my approval and

surgery date. I am so excited that I will starting 2008 with the lapband.

This is my first post so hopefully I am doing it right. A little about myself

I am married and have a very supportive husband and one daughter. I have been overweight since puberty. I did successfully lose 80 pounds about twelve years ago but of course gained it back plus more. I have

Cigna insurance and it took me six months of doctors supervised visits and with high bp,sleep apnea,diabetes,gerd,hyperthyroid I was fortunately to be approved on the first try. I live in Houston Texas and use Dr. Terry Scarborough with U.T. Physcians. I am so glad I found this website and want to thank all of you for the laughs,tears and good advice I have learned from reading all the post. We are all in the same boat, I hope it doesnt sink. ha Just wanted to say hello and share my good news with the gang. Keep posting I am learning something new everyday.
