You will be fine i had my surgery on thursday and my 7 year niece lives with me as well as my 1 year old and 4 year old niece are always here. Warning watch out for elbows and make them climb up as you can lift more the 15 lbs for awhile and keep in mind a gallon of milk is 8 lbs. I had to watch them on saturday for a bit and had no problems. My doctor said no bed rest and to get up and move and so i think they helped me more than hindered and i have had very little trouble with gas just keep walking and do exactly what the doctors says. I am going back to work on Tuesday and not at all worried even if Monday weren't a holiday i would not worry. Take Care and good luck:thumbup:

thank you so much you are to sweet amsderb and slim-n-tn! I am on my way out the door!!!!!:smile2:

We can do this i am getting banded at 9:00 AM!!!:smile2:

My doctor told me i didn't have enough info for them to submit and that i need to wait and do the 6 month diet i insisted that the submit it anyways and one week later - I was approved and that was monday and i am having my surgery covered 100% by Aetna in Las Vegas. don't give up!:thumbup:

Thank you all so much!!!! My insurance is Aetna to answer someones question earlier!:thumbup:

Okay so all my stuff was submitted to the insurance exactly one week ago and i was told it would take 6 weeks to a month to get approved. So to my surprise i got a call today saying they got the approval and they have scheduled my surgery for Thursday!!!! I can't believe this has happened so fast it has taken less than a month from the first time i walked into the doctors office until now this is crazy. When i first went to the doctor they told me i would have to wait six months to do a presurgery diet so the insurance would approve it but i begged them to submit what i had and they did and it went through i am going crazy i was not ready for this. Any last minute tips of what i should run out and buy or have on hand.....I could scream i am so happy!!!!:tt1::wink2::wub::tt1::tt1::crying::confused2:

I have a surgery date of September 25th. I am awaiting on my insurance approval, and if they get it sooner they will move up my date. As of right now i am excited and ready to do this and i was doing well until if found out that my doctor insists that his patients stay overnight in the hospital and i have to say i just don't know how i am going to do it.

:confused2: I was wondering if there are any other Widow's out there?
