Hi everyone! ive been reading other posts and im getting more and more excited to get banded and have as much success as you guys! Only thing driving me CRAZY is this damn 6month "i can change program"" for my insurance. i wish i looked into this before i decided surgery because i would have been banded by now! its just very frustrating. but on the up side im learning how to eat slower and smaller portions AND eating breakfast wich i never did before.. has anyone heard or gone through this program before? its only been about 2 months and its draaaaaaaaging

My insurance had the same requirement but I was able to bypass it. Luckily, I've had the same PCP for 20 years and he had already seen my numerous attempts.

I know what you mean! I thought my 6 mos would never be over. I just finished last month and am now waiting for ins. approval. To be honest...once I got going with my preop stuff (clearances, gathering paperwork, started working out)....the time flew by. Before I knew it....I was at my 6 mo appointment and freaked out that I was now ready for surgery. Hang in there! It will be worth it.

IM if you need motivation

I also have to do a 6 mos pre-op diet Stace and feel like you but atleast you have 4 mos to go, unlike me I'm @ the beginning of this journey. But I haven't had any problems get my appt I have 2 on Mon and 1 on Tues so Good Luck!!!!
