hi. glad i found this forum. i went to a seminar recently and decided to do the lap band. my first appointment is mar 6. lucky for me my insurance covers all but about $700. otherwise this would be impossible for me.

my top weight was 383.... now i am at 367. have been as low as 313 since i got fat. i was athletic shaped until about age 33 and then i started gaining weight. my normal weight is around 215.

hope to make a friend or two here.

Welcome Redberd, I am pre-band also. This site is the greatest for info...almost anything you have a question about can be answered by someone who has experienced it. You don't have to worry about being judged and that are no "stupid" questions. I wish you luck.

Yep, I sit and read and have had so many questions answered without even having to ask it myself!
