I was banded April 2007 I weighed 260 and by April I weighed 180, then I scheduled a Tummy Tuck. I am 58 so I needed it. I got my band in Phx. AZ at St. Lukes by Dr. Fang. Insurance is health net.

I just wanted to say Hi, I'm new as well

Hi Azdwing...I am new here too! My appt. with the surgeon is next Tuesday Oct. 8th. for my first consultation. We are retired military so we are Tricare Prime. My DH and I lived out in AZ for almost 8 years. He was stationed at Williams AFB, in Chandler, AZ but went to ASU for his degree. We are retired here in Ohio. My BMI is 40.1 plus I have other health issues that I hope clear up. Just went on the CPAP machine in May and my PCM told me that I could probably get off of it when some of my weight is gone. I had my gallbladder out in May also, so don't have to contend with that issue. Just worried about the scar tissue that my surgeon said I had so much of from the GB being so diseased for so long.

Just wanted to say hi...........Jan
