After months of deliberation, the decision is in, yesterday they denied me, today they have approved me. See what prayer does. How can it be denied yesterday, and then approved today. The only answer can be the work of my almighty God. He is great, wonderful, and all that I wish I could be. Thank you again God. It is all your doing. How excited am I, just waiting on a surgery date. :amen:

Congratulations!!

Want2lose- Thank you. Looks like your doing great as newly banded. Great jos and keep up the good work. How was everything pain wise and are you having any probelsm adjusting?

Thanks. The pain wasn't too bad. It hurt to change position for a few days, (ie change from sitting to standing or sitting to lying down), but I was on liquid tylenol by the end of day 2, and driving about 48hrs after surgery. I now feel great and have adjusted well. It's pretty rare that I am hungry, and I eat about 600 calories/day.

Good luck!

Congratulations Sueol, Onward to your new life.....

Copngratulations and good luck on your journey!

Thank you all again.
