But I am a Diabitic and I have to eat after giving myself a shot in the morning which is at 4:30 am. So I have to eat somethng even tho I am not hungery to keep myself from having my surgers drop drastically.

What ID card are you talking about. I never heard of it.

Hi there, I too am excited to start my new life style. I am schedualed for surgery Fri July 20. I will begin my Protein regimine on Thursday July 5. I will be off from work 4 to 6 wks. I have to be 100 % before coming back to work. I am on my feet all day and lift alot, so they won't let me come back if I can't do the work. So I will enjoy the time off.

I am happy for you and yes enjoy the time off lol. I sit down at a desk all day so I will only be out for about a wk and I am able to go back. Well I will be wishing you the best luck in our new Journey and be checking on you to see how everything is going with you.

I got great news today from BCBS of Illinois, that they said yes to the lap band, so next week I see my surgeon and then we schedual it to be done. Since my birthday is June 20, this is my gift to myself!!!! Yippie!!

I too am working on getting the surgery as soon as possible. This August I will be married for 25 yrs and I wish I looked the same as I did when I got married. Back then I weighted 170, now I my weight is 250. It has been over 26 years since I was down to 145 and that was only because I was eating Nutri System food and did arobics 2 x a day 6 days a week. I will be turning 47 in June and hopefully my surgery will be the first week of June. This would be the best gift I have given myself ever. Good Luck.
