  1. Good Luck on your journey to better health. I have already had my consultation, pych. eval. and met with a nutritionist. Just waiting on my insurance, which is United Healthcare also. Its been almost three weeks, and I have not heard a thing. I'm getting kind of restless. People I work with have told me it didn't take them but two weeks to hear anything. I hope you hear something soon!!!
  2. Oh Georgia Girl, this pizza receipe will be next. Your crockpot meatloaf was sooo good!!! My husband loved it, I only had a little since I'm still trying to lose some more weight before surgery. We froze half of it, for later. My lapband coordinator just got my papers faxed to my insurance today, she has been waiting on my Primary Drs. office to send them. She said it shouldn't be too long now. I was thinking maybe you should write a cookbook, I would buy one!!!!!
  3. Georgia girl, I just have to tell you again how great your Creamy Chicken Salad is. I have had to stock up on this stuff, because my husband is making sandwiches out of it. He loves it!!! I find myself looking for all your posts for your receipes. I told my husband about your slow cooker meatloaf. He wants me to make it this weekend. So I'm making a grocery list. I noticed your age, same as my daughter. She used to live in Hinesville,Georgia. Her twins were born in Savanna. Georgia is a beautiful state, love it there. (Still waiting for my insurance to approve me. I'm hanging in there.)
  4. Tried this yesterday, it is awsome!!! I haven't been banded yet. I have gone through my psych. eval. seminar, and nutritional couns. Just waiting on my insurance. Oh yeah, I have been on a mostly liquid diet, and one low calorie meal, trying to lose the weight my Dr. wants lost. So far I have lost from 241 to 221. I love this web site!! I feel like I have a support group that meets in my own home every night!!! Keep up the good work Lapband Talk members.
  5. Thanks, Time4me2, Texas girls will be victorious!!!!
  6. I'm just getting started, had my first seminar on the 15th, and my first Drs. appointment will be 7/24. Haven't heard from my insurance yet. I'm doing this because of my health. I have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure, plus being 100 lbs. overwieght. There are several people at my work that have had lapband and they have done really well. I love this site ,it has really helped me. Infact I have been doing the liquid diet for a week, just to see if I could. I gotten so many good ideas here. Thank GOD for this web site, it is the best. Will let everyone know if its going to happen for me after my appointment.:scared2:
