I got my date today February 6th at 0800 am. I can't wait. I will probably have to quit my job. I don't have any vacation or sick. My boss said unless I can get FMLA approve before the surgery I will have to quit or reschedule my surgery. I'm not rescheduling I have waited to long. I would rather quit a job I don't like then reschedule for them. Joan

So I have decide that lap band is for me. I'm just waiting for the insurance to tell Dr. Malley's office what they will pay. My DH will pay the balance. I'm excited but scared to death. My firend that has had lap band is doing GREAT. We go to church together. I wish she hadn't told everyone that I was going to have it. I'm not even going to tell my family until after. Cause it is my choice and I know the pro's and con's and I feel like if I am going to be her for my Darling daughter jillian I have to do something. I do wonderful until about 60 or 80 pounds and them something clicks and I gain it all back and some. Joan

Went for my consultation today. Can't wait. He said it would take about 3 - 4 weeks for the insurance to get back with him. I'm 45 live in Kansas City. Married for 21 years have an 8 year old daughter. Need to lose at least 150 lbs. Hope to get to know you all better. Joan
