I am from Memphis, TN. Graduate from Frasyer High School the 25th person in my class of 2003. I love making people laugh. I have a great personailty is to get a long and very out going. I am a christian, I love being there and having discussed about the bible with the rest of my young adult group. I have 60% about going through the laparoseopic Lap Band Surgery. I meet with my doctor on Monday July 30 to discusse the surgery because it is between save my life and it best fit my situation. I just wants to say hello to everyone on the board.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
Congratulations on your weight loss so far. You are a very determined young lady, and doing very well.
When meeting the surgeon, be sure to ask tons of questions, and be sure to reasearch as much as you can, both the good and the bad, so you can be confident in your choice.
((((((HUGS))))) May your journey go well.
