divaliciousdee 0 Posted July 31, 2005 I am new to this site. I am awaiting insurance approval for my lapband surgery. I needed 2 years of previous medical history in order for approval. I know that it will be approved but the waiting is so unbearable. I have read all of your inspirational stories. I just want to be able to live life without high blood pressure and have energy to do the "normal things" in life. Thanks for posting your stories they help more than you know. I am proud of all of you and I don't even know you! Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mayflower419 0 Posted July 31, 2005 Congrats new bandsters, I will be banded on wednesday. Its good to hear your stories of a successful surgery and somewhat easy recovery. I'm terrified will not have such a smooth recovery. I feel fine now I'm afraid I will have caused myself to now live a life of problems. I know there are more success stories than not but I seem to focus on the negative ones thinking that will be my luck. Trying to be more positive. It helps to hear your stories of success.
