After all the "pink elephant" stories and the 400 question quiz stories, I was really nervous about going today. All my appt entailed was 45 mins of talking about my childhood, my struggles with weight and different diets & reasons why I chose lap band. That was it, no questionaire, nothing. Dr said I was a perfect candidate & she felt I should get it done as quickly as possible. She will have her report over to my surgeon by 8 am tomorrow & then everything goes to ins tomorrow morning for final approval. Feb 8th may not be my surgery date if ins doesnt put a rush on it since I have to start my 10 day preop in 8 days, but I will definately be banded sometime in Feb for sure!! I also have been feeling like I am getting sick for the last 3 days, bad sore throat & bronchitis feeling cough & chest congestion. I am overdosing on vitamins so hopefully I can fight it off in time!

I love when people are supportive!! Congrats! Also, way to go on losing so much before hand!! Good luck on your journey

That is great! Your on your way!!!
