Ok here goes...

I have been trying to get the lap band for about 4 years now. First time my insurance would not approve... then I waited and waited, now I have new insurance and I am on my way. I have a surgery date for February 12th. I must say that I am really excited. I just wish it were already here.

Congrats! It won't be long now, after waiting 4 years. I wish you all the best for your surgery day.
