Hello my name is Lisa. I am 33 years old. I have been considering lapband for a year now. I am alittle bit nervous about getting it done.I weight over 200+ and I am so tired of people making fun of me because of my size. I am married and my husband is very proud of me for doing this.I would like to get some informantion on the lapband.

Welcome to the group. I would suggest you take time and read a lot of the post on here their is a lot of good information. If you have any specifice questions just ask away. My wife and I have been banded for almost 9 months and I have lost almost 50+ lbs. One thing I would do is call your insurance company and see if they cover this and what is required. Then get all your medical records together and go and meet the doctor you would like to have the lapband done by. It took us about 9 months from when we first started getting things in place. Once we meet the doctor we were banded in less than 45 days. I hope that this helps you out.
