City: Tucson State: AZ | Hey everyone! I'm a guy, 23, and I've lost about 68 pounds so far. In the last part of December, I wrecked my sportbike, so I'm healing myself at home for the most part.
Nice to meet everyone!

| Hi all, I am 27 and had my procedure done on Jaunary 12, 2008 by Dr. Contreras Guarista at the Versalles Center in Tijuana, Mexico. It was the best decision I've ever made. I feel great and have lost 10 lbs in my first week. | |

City: Portland State: Oregon | Hiya! My name is Sarah and I just celebrated my 26th birthday Friday!
I am getting my band on the 31st of this month and I am VERY anxious and excited. It has been a long long haul for me and to finally be able to count down the days on 2 hands is amazing!
Good luck to everyone!

State: OH | Hi my name is Nikki. I am 23 and from OH. I have not been banded yet. But I go for my psych eval today and the last visit of my six months of "medically supervised diet" on Friday at which point all of my paper work will be sunmitted to the insurance company. I am crossing my fingers for a speedy approval.
I am a college student and work full time. I love clubbin', shopping, and reading.

State: OH | From what I understand not all doctors/ insurance companies require it.
Mine was almost a joke. Questions like; do you want to kill yourself (no), do you hate yourself (no), do you or have you had an eating disorder (no), are you sad or do you cry alot (no), do you understand what the surgery is (yes)
I mean really if I had some sort of problem do you not think I could figure out how to answer these questions. So really there was no point to it except to charge my insurance company LOL

City: St. Charles State: Missouri | Hi,
I'm Charly from St. Louis, Missouri USA. I was banded on Dec. 10, 2007 and have lost 30lbs. I LOVE MY BAND!!! This is a great board. Thanks to whoever started this.
And since I'm already posting this, I thought I'd add something else, because I think it applies to our age group.
Okay, this may seem like a crazy for some of ya'll who have hectic lives, but I'm in the VERY SMALL percentage that has a LOT of free time--A LOT!!  I praise God that he has blessed me with a wonderful Monday-Friday 9-5 job (no overtime required unless voluntary, and then I am paid time n' half). I have no kids (but, 2 dogs) and no hobbies. I come home and fix a homemade meal EVERY NIGHT and I still have 4-5 hours with nothing to do but watch TV. I wanted to explain myself before I go on. So, I'm starting to eat little things here and there because I'm so bored. I exercise during my lunch hour at the gym in my building because I like the way it makes me feel for the later part of my day. I've been applying for part time jobs to keep me busy and help out with bills. I think I'm going insane with all this free time! I just needed to "vent" about this. If anyone has any suggestions, please share!! | |
