Thanks for the info on the plastic surgery. Having a lapband, my weight loss will be a lot slower and hopefully my body will be able to absorb a lot of the excess skin; however, I will have to wait and see what the "finished" product will look like. LOL Joe

Joe! Congrats on your insurance approval. You will be on the loosing side before you know it. Seems like your ride so far has been smooth and easy. I will pray that your surgery is the same. Take Care, Nancy K
