  18. Yayyyyy! Im hoping I will hear something back soon on when to start mine. I am also using Dr. Reilly.
  19. Hi all, I joined this group 2 weeks ago and love it thus far, there are so many supportive people here. I have considered getting the lap band for years, I have been yoyo dieting for 15 years, I now have a 9 month old son and have decided I need to get the weight off and keep it off so that I am here for the long run for him. He was my motivation to move forward with the process. Im also done with the joint pain, fatigue and everything else that comes with being overweight. Years ago it was for vanity, but now Im doing it for a healthier me. I went for my initial consultation at True Results-Houston 2 weeks ago, I have completed all of my insurance requirements and just waiting on all the paperwork to be submitted to the insurance BCBSTX which I hope happens this week. I am hoping for a December surgery date, because Im ready to get my new life started plus I've paid my maximum out of pocket so everything is covered at 100% which is always a perk. So Im keeping my fingers crossed. Im nervous, excited, scared all at the same time. I was ALL excited before the ball got rolling, now that its rolling Im nervous. Im a Nurse Practitioner so sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing. So I just wanted to introduce myself instead of just lurking around. Good Luck to everyone.

  21. These all seem to be appropriate feelings. I usually just lurk the post but wanted to let you know we are here to support you in anyway we can. And if it helps you can have 1 chip every now and again you just have to chew it up to mush. I haven't even gotten a surgery date yet and I'm anxious nervous and have all the same thoughts you do and I'm a nurse (the worst patients)
  22. Keshajo1: Which office are you doing everything out of in Houston? I am going next wednesday to do all of the labs and other requirements for submittal to my insurance BCBSTX also. When I went for my consult I didn't want to jump to a conclusion but immediately decided to go for it. Which surgeon did they tell you? They told me Dr. Rielly. Hoping I can get the ball rolling. Good Luck with everything!
