Hello! I have endured my six months of counseling and weight loss visits....waiting on insurance approval. It's been a long six months, but posts on this forum have kept me motivated to continue! I look forward to gettnig to know everybody!

Hi Dena, I had to do the 6mths jumping threw hoops too! It did go by pretty quick though. I also spent a lot of time here and glad I did. You learn more here than any classes I had to go to.

I was banded 10/15/12 so I'm still pretty new to it, but everything I've been through I knew was normal from being here.

Hope everything works out for you and good luck on your journey to better health!

Hi

I am waiting also. Stinks, doesn't it?!

Most of the people I talk to haven't been banded all that long yet they know so much and are very helpful.

And then the ones that have been banded for quite awhile don't mind the naive questions I ask.

Feel free to chat anytime and we can be in the insurance wsitjng room together. Hmmm, that sounds like a good name for a thread! : )

I got final approval finally! Surgery scheduled for December 28th...pre-op meeting with surgeon on the 12th. Now I'm starting to get nervous....it had always been something in the future...now it's here! LOL Thank you for your replies and support! Here's to success for us all!

I know exactly how you feel mine us on the 28th also

Cool jilly-bean! Where are you located? I'm in Houston, Tx...maybe we can compare notes!

I'm in Washington State. That would be great!!
