Hello Everyone,

I'm into month 3 of all the APPT! I started the process in 2003 for the Gastric Bypass but my job changed insurance and didn't cover it!! Was very unhappy but what can you do? I guess everything happens for a reason. Gastric is so more then the band so I guess it was a good thing. I started a job in Sept. that covers the lap band.. boy did I hop on it!! lol Started going to Dr. appt and all the fun appts.. wow is it a lot! I was really hoping to have my surgery by the end of the year. But it's not going to happen. I'm trying not to let it disappoint me. I'm really excited about it, can't wait to get it done. I was trying not to take to much time off work (how much time did you all take off?). I do have to lift once a day but another staff member said they would help me out . I'm starting at the weight of 290 in the year 2011 but really looking forward to seeing the pounds drop though out the year. I've been reading about protien shakes and have order OH Yeah, the bottles shakes(for work) contain more fat in them then the powder(from anyone that use this product did the fat matter it was high?)

If anyone has any advise for me let me know :)Thanks
