Howdie!

Anyone getting banded in February? My date has been set for Feb 28th, 2010. My insurance is pending waiting on my 2 final appointments to fulfill the 6 month PCP assisted weight loss. Those 2 appointments have been set up for Jan and Feb 4th. Humana said that Feb 5th, when they receive the paperwork they will approve it! YES!

So, anyone that is being banded in February, I would love to buddy up and go on this journey together!

Much Love and best Wishes,

Heather

My Surgery Date is Feb 3rd... I have to start my pre-op diet on Jan 26th~ I am So excited.... Everyone keeps asking why i am not nervous... I think the excitement is Overtaking!!!!! Best of Luck to Us all!

Hey guys!!

My date is February 8! Nervous and excited. My preop diet starts next Monday - 3 weeks! - and I'm really dreading it but determined to follow it perfectly.

Janelle - I noticed you are having surgery in Cincinnati. Who's your doctor? I'm having surgery in Cinci with Dr. Curry.

I'm excited to make some new friends that will be going through this with me!

Hey Stacey! I'm Stacey too!

Hey Everyone!

I have scheduled my surgery for 2/5/10 in Mexico with Dr. Ortiz. A few people (of the very few that I have told) are very happy and excited for me, others are not happy that I'm going to Mexico and think that I'm putting my health in jeopardy. I want to tell them to bug-off but that wouldn't be very nice. Any advise for me on how to handle this?

Hey, I am getting my surgery done by Dr. Ortiz as well. My mom just had hers done a few days ago and she LOVED it down there. They are super gfreat, very professional, no issues whatsoever! I don't think that just because it is in Mexico, people should assume there is something wrong with it! It is a really great facility and everything will be great! I am going on February 22, so you are a bit ahead of me!

Thank you for making me feel better about my decision Janelle.:thumbup:
