I decided to get the band after I found out it was covered on my insurance.... well not entirely true....... I had been thinking, debating, pondering, calculating the cost for over a year now.
I have two very close friends who had the RNY.. one going on 4 years post op, and one going on 2 years post op... BOTH Have done wonderful, both have lost over 100 lbs. ONE of them has regained 25% of her weight back,but is still happy with her decision........ BOTH say that it is THE best thing they ever did for themselves...... that said.. IT is not for me.......
I chose the band for many reasons....... A simple week of PTO off from work and no one.... will even know... No one but my Sig Other, My mom and now as of today my sis!
I have already been emailing my insurance company, the program coordinator at my surgeons office, and today... I just found out that
I have my first consult with the doc on 1/08/2007.....
I am HOPING/Praying that I might possibly have my band by the end of January or beginning of February......... a PIPE DREAM.. maybe... but maybee not.
Today I weigh: 263 give or take a few christmas pounds... this is my top weight except when I delivered my son.
Stay Tuned
