They said you folder needs to go through a review?? Would have someone call me tomorow with where they are.. Just worried that for some reason they dont want me :smile2:

Thanks I guess I need words of wisdom

Ok I have jumped through all the hoops even gotten insurance approval. I called on Monday to my insurance.. They said I was aproved. So I was trying to be good at waiting so I waited a day.. Called the doctor and asked about it told them I had called and it had gone through. I was told I would be called later that day or next neither. Now Thrusday. Please I know mine is going quicker than many. But I was told at the beginning they would push it through fast due to I was unsure how long we would have this insurance. So anyways now it is thrusday. I am so excited to get started. Even trying to eat better maybe even prestart my liquid diet. No way just cant do it yet. I guess I am still trying to get in the last bit. I am not going crazy and eating and gaining. Just cant start liquid diet without the word from them.. I am starting to think gee is this for me. I know a crazy rant. I am so looking forward. I guess I am just nerious with the waiting.. Please be kind with your replys had to get that off my chest

I live in california and I have blue shield ppo.. The doctor i am seeing has a fee for the first year of 3500.00 this is for meeting with office staff refills etc. what other costs will there be?

I have my class to inform us of the whole process on wed. I guess it is 4 hours. So many questions. My neighbor had the gastric bypass. Her weight just fell off. She looks great. but has health issues. I am guessing due to her food habbits she eats chocolate nonstop. and ice cream. I like the fact that it is adjustable and if need be could be removed. please tell me why you choose lap band over gastric bypass jsut looking for some reasurance
