I hope to describe my journey through the land of losing weight with the help of the Realize Band. I had one band put in on March 3rd but it became infected and had to be removed. I had a band put back in on June 17th and have hopes of losing 90 pounds.

How to find some more weight
While many of you would probably be glad to loan me some extra weight, I really feel I have plenty of my own. However, the insurance company believes that your BMI must be at a certain level to have lap band surgery. They don't look at the fact that my BMI WAS at that level before I had the surgery and then I lost weight and then some because of the infection so now I'm below that BMI. I must gain 4 more pounds (have already gained 5) in order to qualify for them to put a new lap band in. Silly, I say!

Crazy, I say. Typical though. Good luck!
