It is so hard to wait. I have BCBS of Alabama. They require a Dr supervised diet for 6 months which really ends up being 7 months. It is a bummer! I went to the seminar last Saturday and have my first appointment with my primary about my weight loos today. I know exactly how you feel. You finally make a decision after struggling for so long to go ahead and get banded and then you are told it is going to be awhile! Stay strong! I have a feeling it will go by faster than we think!

Hi everyone! My name is Mary, and I am very new! I have struggled with my weight my intire life! I started taking perscription diet pills when I was in the 6th grade in order to make the weight limit to be a high school majorette. When I entered into the 9th grade I weight 130 lbs. By the time I graduated I weighed back up to 163 lbs. After highschool I got up to 225 lbs. I started taking diet pills agian and lost back down to 165 lbs. I am now 27 years old and weigh 310 lbs. Wow! My BMI is 50. My weight has never bothered me in the past, but over the past year I have really realized the limits it has put on my life! I would love to go to a concert or the movies with my husband and not have to worry if I will fit in the seat. That would be great! I would love to get pregnant, we have been married for 3 1/2 years. Anyways, I made the call and I have to go to the seminar on Feb 20. After that I can make an appointment to meet the Dr. I already contacted my insurance company and they said they approved it with 6 months of being monitored on a diet. I have been involved in a program through my local gym called In Shape America. I have been doing that for 6 months. Hoping they will except that??????? Glad to meet everyone! Oh and by the way I am from Alabama!
