  1. Thank you Illuminationlady! I got it :thumbup:
  2. I can't officially say I will be banded in Dec, but I am hoping I am. I have one hospital test left to complete otherwise I have done everything requested of my insurance. My surgeons office told me their goal is to get me in before Christmas but it will depend on the last test and insurance. Could someone please give me instructions on how to put a weight ticker as my signature? Thanks a bunch and good luck everyone! =)
  3. Thank you to everyone for all the helpful information posted on here! Thoughts & prayers will be with you during your surgery, I hope the pump works out well for you :tongue_smilie:
  4. Does insurance cover a tummy tuck? I'm just wondering if this is something I should start saving for. Thanks!
  5. I was told there is a diff depending on if you have Blue Cross Blue Shield IL ~ PPO or HMO. Suppose to be easier to get approved with HMO. I called and was given verbal approval and now waiting on my letter to verify in writting.

    I am at the beginning of this process, meet with the surgeon on Wed. I have read that once banded you can no longer eat breads. I see from your posts that you have ate them and it appears it made you sick? Can you give me more detail regarding what happens? I'm hoping it will help keep me away from it after I am banded. Thanks & Good luck =)
