Hello,

My surgery date has been set for 2/11/08...seems like forever but i'm

sure it'll be here b4 i know. Approval was fairly easy insurance approved in 3 days--haven't had any pre-op testing yet-all scheduled for this month and January--can't wait to start this new adventure !!!!!!!

Scared and excited all rolled up in one-:clap2:

Good luck - I can only hope that my process goes as fast as yours has!

Happy New Year!

Congrats on the approval. The time will fly and your surgery date will be here before you know it. Good luck with all of your test and your surgery!!!

Thanks! Wow- 71 lbs lost that is awesome! Can you believe i'm worried about the upper GI pre-op? How was that for you?

I might be a February bandster too! I'll be submitting my paperwork early january (I finish my 6 months visits next week) and there should be no reason why I don't get approved, but, never count your chickens till they've hatched, right? I meet all the requirements, but insurance companies aren't always fair, right? lol.

i too am crossing fingers to be banded late january or early february 2008...

i will be submitting to insurance beg of january as well

good luck to all!
