Hey everyone! I am Jeanee and I am in Anchorage. I am getting ready to get the Lap Band procedure done. FINALLY, after a few years, the doctors here are accepting my insurance! And the insurance is covering it! I am going to be seeing Dr. Searles next week. Pretty darned excited about it. For those of you that have had the surgery. They do a psyc. test, right? What do I need to expect from that?? No, I am not a nutcase .... but worry that if I tell them I get depressed from time to time from being so overweight .... will they cancel on me? Know what I mean? I am 240 right now. I was 265 but took over a year to drop that 25 pounds! I have been at a total stand still for a few months now. I have 20 month old twins and as active as they are, I really really want to do more with them .... not be embarrassed thinking people are looking at me laughing because I am running or something like that. I want to be around a long time for them. I also have diabetes! I developed it with my pregnancy but it never went away. I REALLY think it was there before. I pay attention to how I am feeling and I remember the same from before ..... Let's see ..... My BMI came out to be 37. But with diabetes, severe joint pain in my hip, knees and ankles ..... I HOPE I get this!! Any advice before I go in and start this????????????????? Jeanee
