Hi Alison: I am planning on going to the next support meeting at the office. It is on June 24th. Maybe I will see you there!!! My next appointment is on June 23rd. I have bcbs of Minnesota and that is why i have to do more then if i had bcbs of ma. I think i told you my friend is being banded tomorrow. I am gonna go visit tomorrow after work. I want to see what the floor looks like too! Hope you had a good weekend and are feeling good.

HI Alison: I will hopefully be getting the lap band on July 22nd with Arthur. I think they are just great in the office. The girls are so cool and nice and know me when I come in. When I first started there in January Arthur had to go through a lot to get my insurance to even consider me for the band. I was so upset. Of course the denied me first and since then i have had to go to the nutritionist twice with one more scheduled for june. I did the sleep study and of course had to go back a second time for the cpap. i got that last week and i hate it. i have been trying to use it the best i can but it gives me a headache when i take it off and i just cant sleep with it on. My friend is getting banded on Tuesday June 3rd!! we were hoping to be closer in dates but my insurance is putting up a stink so i will be a month and a half behind her. I was glad to read they gave you some pain med to go home on. How was the 10 day liquid diet? My friend is doing ok. she said she is really starting to get tired. I am NOT looking forward to that. I work in a call center and everyone eats all day so it should be an interesting 10 days when it is my turn. Hope you dont mind the long reply but i am just so excited for you!!! When i met with dr newman he said this was gonna be the best thing for me. I just cant wait. it is hard to keep it in a day. How long did you have to wait from the initial visit to being banded? well i think this is long enough. I better start the day. we are having a huge cookout on sunday and have a TON of things to do. Hope you have a good day and are feeling good. Take care.

I am getting really excited to have the lap band done. my tentative date is July 22 2008!!! I just spent the last hour separating cloths from sized 20-14 into bins. i cant wait to start wearing them again. I have been overweight most of my 35 yrs. the last picture i remember of me being a "normal" weight was when i was getting on the shool bus for kingergarten. my friend told me about this site a few days ago and i just started looking at it. it is very informative. glad to see there are lots from MA on it.

are you still wondering about Dr. Glasgow? I am in the process of having the lapband done. I have been seeing him since January 2008 and have been very happy with the whole office. let me know if you need any other info.
