That's awesome. I'm looking forward to it. I have a little over 1 month for PCP visits and then I'll be ready to submit. I'm excited. I just wish it was here already.

Hi - I'm having surgery at NYU also. Who did yours?

Well I have had like 5 or 6 fills and im FINALLY starting to feel a difference. I thought something was seriously wrong with me cause I wasnt losing a bunch of weight and I still felt hungry. But I have lost 43lbs in 2 months which is more than I have ever done! Im just afraid im gonna fall back into my old habits though like stopping by a fast food place when im hungry and working out as much as possible. OH WELL. Let me know how your doing! - Bria

HEY! Yea its so rare to find people our age, since everyone seems older but we have our whole lives ahead of us to enjoy being thin! Its amazing, I 100% support anyone in getting the lap band. My advice is to read some of the blogs though of things people wish they would have known before the surgery, It really helps. And Aetna actually is my insurance company also and I have NO problems getting approved! It was so smooth and easy I was so suprised. Best of luck to you and keep in touch! Im newly going through all of this so if you have any questions (from a young persons perspective) Im totally here for you! Lots of Love - Bria
