Hi! I am getting banded on September 20, 2010 in Chicago. I am on day two of my liquid diet. So excited for you!!! Good Luck :thumbup:

:scared2: My lapband is scheduled for September 20th and I am ready for my life to begin. I am 42 and want to feel alive again. It is difficult living life the way I have been and I am ready for change. I am going to start shopping for all my liquids I will need for my pre-diet. It's hard for people that are thin to understand the situation I am in. They just think..diet and exercise and the weight will come right off. Been there, done that....it's not working for me. This is the best choice for ME to get healthy and start living. I don't care what people think, it's my life and I'm going for it!!! I'm glad I can just blog here and have lots of people who understand my situation. Peace:biggrin:

I have BCBS...My surgery date is September 20th! I can't wait. I start my liquid diet on September 6th. It can't begin soon enough for me....

:thumbup: I got approved!!! My final appointment was August 16th and they called today and said I was approved!!!! I am waiting for the call back for the surgery date. I can't believe it only took 4 days to find out. They had originally said 2-4 weeks. I have never been happier.....love it !!!!

:thumbup: How do I get the ticker factory on my page? Can't seem to figure it out

I'm getting my surgery in Chicago. Where are you getting yours done at? I can't stand the waiting....I just want to get going with this. Thanks for posting on my wall...I'm new to all this but it's nice to have other people going thru the same thing. :thumbup:

:smile2: I have gone to all my appointments and everything was submitted to my insurance company. As soon as I hear back, I can schedule the surgery and start my liquid diet. This is my first time posting anything. I am very excited to start a new life after the band.
