Paula~ It'll be here before I know it!!! I hope it goes as good as my gallbladder surgery did. If so I should be in good shape! I went back to work 4 days after surgery. No nausea,shoulder pains etc.. I felt lucky that it went so smoothly. 1 down 1 to go!

Just think... next year at this time - you are gonna be 1 skinny little gal!

Whooo Hoooo! It really will be here before you know it, when I had two weeks to go I couldn't believe how fast they went. Just know we are all here and if you have any questions one of us will know the answer! I can almost feel your excitement over here, and it makes me excited for you!

Paula~ I like the sound of that "SKINNY STUFF" HeHe!! I might look pretty good by Christmas at this rate. I might have to get me a new RED dress HEHE!!!

They held my paperwork up for 11/2 wks at the doc's office- they knida forgot to send it in - so it just went in last Monday;0(

I am going to call mid-wk to the insurance co & check on the progress. But for now I will simply live through you vicarously;0)

I'll succeed~ It has been a long road for me too! I know how you feel but your day will come. I've been working on this since 1st of Oct and then had to get delayed because of my stupid gallbladder. Otherwise I would have my band already. Oh well all things happen for a reason.I just look at it that my band has already helped me in more ways than one. I would have not known for a long time that I had gallbladder problems except it was found in pre op tests while looking into getting banded.

For me and you both it will be well worth the wait!! Good luck on getting approved!!

18 Days!!!!

WOOHOO Thats not all that far.. It will come by fast!! Im soooo happy for you.... and just to think I almost got mine on the 14th of march woha hehe

You are going to do great!!!! (((((((((((((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))))))))

Love ya girl!!!!!!!!!!

Jamie,
