  1. Hi, I'm so OVERWHELMED! Right now I'd just like to know what to expect the day of surgery and right after?
  2. I have Cigna. My Doctors office told me it would take two weeks for the final approval. I called Friday after 1 week and they said it was still in "Medical Verification." Whatever that means? I start my optifast tomorrow. I hope and pray nothing goes wrong. My surgery is scheduled for the 15th of JULY!
  3. Hi ALL, I'm getting banded July 15. My Doctor is Nelson De La Cruz in Miami. I start my two weeks of OPTI FAST tomorrow. I'm really excited and a bit nervous. I'm 40 years old. I have 2 children and a wonderful husband. I'm 5 foot 4 inches tall. My current weight is 220-YUCK! My goal weight is 145-155. M
