Hi everyone! I'm FINALLY getting banded this Friday! After 9 months of jumping thru hoops with my insurance, they finally approved my surgery! I'm so beyond excited! I'm nervous, believe me, but EXCITED! my only concern is I have to be back to work on Wednesday! Will that be enough time?

Congrats... may need to take it easy the first day, or call in with the flu. I think you will be fine, just tired easy, so go right home and rest!

Thanks! I had my gallbladder removed in June so i know kinda what to expect, but I'm so excited! My life is Ganna change!!

Congrats! My insurance is making me do a 6 month counseling/nutrition class before they will approve me. I'm afraid they will give me the run around after the 6 month which is up in February 2013.

Congratulations!!
