Good Morning!

Hi all...thanks for the welcoming posts and howdy's. I'm feeling a bit brighter about at least learning if I am a candidate for WLS. There were times last night when reading about all the hoops people had to jump through to get approval, that I got so down and depressed. But as they say, where there's a will there's a way! So, to begin with, this morning I'm going to read through my ins policy info and see if WLS is ever approved, maybe if it is, there will be info on what is needed to get approval. Has anyone on these boards had the lap-band? I'd love to know how it went and if medical problems began resovling themselves with weight loss, as that is my primary motivation for losing weight. Thanks again, Arlene

I have to say Good Afternoon now. I just read your post. Glad you are feeling brighter today. I understand how you feel when you start dealing with the insurance company. Sometimes it can be overwhelming, but just hang in there. I know it will be worth it all in the end. That is how I am looking at each day that I have to wait before I can have my surgery. Just think positive and happy thoughts.
