  1. It went really well, thank you. I'm just waiting on my tests to come back, then submit to insurance. It's going to be a long week...
  2. I'm so happy for ALL of you! Hoping to join you soon!
  3. WOW, Congrats! Thanks for sharing!
  4. Thanks everyone! I'm getting excited & trying to be patient.....still waiting on my tests to come back. I'm in disbelief with the small amount of food & being satisfied for 4-5 hrs......It would truly be a miracle for me! I hope to hear something this week. Thank you again for the awesome responses!
  5. ROFLMAO......Thanks for the laughs tonight!

  10. Thanks, Goalseeker! Have you had your 1st fill yet?
  11. This is all so interesting.......To be full on a cup or less of food & to be satisfied for 4-5 hrs.... That would be a miracle for ME!
  12. Dee, thanks! So will you have dinner? 3 meals a day is that the target? And look at your weight loss, AWESOME! You ladies are so inspiring!
  13. Thanks Mis73! Dr. Simpson's site is great....I thought about having him do my surgery. I love that he does plication with the band. I hope to have a great loss as you, you are AMAZING!
  14. Hi everyone! I'm a little confused....Does the Lapband suppress the appetite? Or is it about the restriction? Or both? My primary doc said it doesn't suppress!? And can you really stay satisfied for 4-5 hrs? Thanks guys!
  15. Awe, thanks BandingMi! I meet him on Nov. 7th & hope that the labs, EKG & chest x-ray will be ready by then. They said that if all looks good it can be as soon as the week of Thanksgiving!
  16. You look AMAZING & Thanks for sharing!
  17. Congrats, wishing you a speedy recovery!
  18. Psych eval went great! Just waiting on all tests to come back & then submit to insurance. Possible surgery the week of Thanksgiving, getting excited & a little bit nervous. Can't wait to start this new chapter... Any advice is greatly appreciated!
  19. You look amazing.....I haven't worn jeans in YEARS! You go, DEE!
  20. It most likely will be set up tomorrow. Sending positive vibes, Good Luck!
  21. Great, thanks for the heads up! I have my last of the 6 months supervised diet on the 25th. Just so ready!
  22. I have met with a surgeon from another center & decided not to go with him. So I have yet to meet my new surgeon. Just have your questions ready! How was your psych eval?
  23. Had my EKG, chest x-rays & lab work today! My psych eval is on wednesday. Getting really anxious & hoping to have everything back within 2 weeks to submit to Tricare. So ready to get healthy & start living again!
