  1. Still waiting -

    :sneaky: I have 5 more days to go before my psych evaluation - and who knows how long for insurance to either approve or deny me. I was doing really well on my presurgery diet - had lost 20lbs. Somehow I have gained back 6 lbs just this week alone. :w00t:
     
    I read about all these people being banded and just feel bummed because nothing is happening the way I want.
     
    I know quit complaining and practice patience.
  2. Patiently waiting - NOT

    Well this is my first blog and I am only partially through with the pre-surgery gook. I am now up to my psych evaluation - about a week and a half to go for that. And I am terrified they will say I am not mentally equipped to have the surgery. Not sure why, I am pretty sure I am sane, but still nervous.
     
    For those of you who have been through all this, what type of time frame am I looking at until the actually surgery date. I know you can't give exact times, but ballpark would be nice.
     
    This is moving alot slower than I thought it would and I am just impatient.
     
    Anxiously waiting -
