  1. My insurance is a branch of United Health- Oxford. I also was told it could possibly take four weeks, however they ended up responding within two days. I have my fingers crossed for you, it goes quick! <3
  2. :w00t: The process went extremely quick for me as well. My first information Seminar was, January 23rd 2010- I scheduled my first appointment with them two weeks later, and after my first actual visit; I had a surgery date within two weeks. I was so nervous, anxious, scared and excited! I'm thankful though, my process wasn't months and months. Good luck!
  3. Hey Everyone. :wink2: I'm twenty-five and was banded March 25th 2010- I'm quickly approaching seven months post-op- and completely blown away by how quickly time has flown by. I am looking for some support and WLS friends. I have recently undergone port revision surgery as well (September 30th 2010) due to my port healing at a severe tilt- fills were done fluoroscopically every time, and so to eliminate that my surgeon reset my port, and took away some excessive scar tissue, I am still healing from that; I'm very open to answering any question anyone of you may have, so please contact me if that be the case. Anyway, here is my quick hello, and again... I'm looking for some new WLS friends! I'm still trying to figure out my way around this site, but I'll get it! My stats are posted below, I am 5'7" 1/2 tall. (Basically 5'8"!) I started this journey at 325lbs and am as of today 254lbs. A total loss of 71lbs in 29 weeks. My "goal weight" is incredibly rough, I truly have no idea what 160lbs looks like, or even feels like... but it is within a healthy BMI; So, that's what's where it's set for now, who knows what new goal may come out of it once I reach 160! ;] 94lbs to go- ... I'm chasing change, losing half of "me" - while gaining so much more! <3
