WOW!!! You look great! Atta Girl!!!!

Hey, Ladies! Thanks to you all for such a warm welcome! I know being part of this group is really going to help me get through all the frustration of the wait. By the way, I lurked at several different forums before choosing one to jump into, and I just gotta say that this group seems to be such a friendly and comforting bunch! I'm so glad I found you!! Lord knows you girls have made me laugh til I cried on more than one occassion!!!!

Been lurking here for several weeks. Feel like I already know you regulars! My town finally has a lapband surgeon and I went to his first seminar on June 30th. I had already been doing a little research on it, so was thrilled that we finally have a surgeon here in the home town. At the seminar, we were told to get all of our ducks in a row (all the documentation for insurance purposes) before we make an appointment to see the surgeon, so that is where I am now. Went to the PCP and got a letter of medical necessity, requested records from previous diet dr., etc... Waiting, waiting, waiting!!!! I have UHC POS, and have heard that UHC is band friendly. We will see.... Anywho, I am 40 yrs old, married, no kids, momma to one OLD dog (the other one died in October) and 4 goldfish. I have been an avid gardener for many years. That's me in a nutshell, anyway. I can't wait to get banded!
