OK, so I just started this process about 4 weeks ago and I got a call yesterday from the surgeon telling me that I need my psych eval asap. I have already had that scheduled and they knew it so I could not figure out this phone call. When I called them back , I was advised that it was approved and just waititng for that! I could not and still cannot believe it!!! Now I am really nervous, I did not expect it to happen so fast. No 6 month diet or anything!! WOW! I will keep you updated, I get my surgery date next week!! Wish me luck!!!

Sounds like you guys in the States have a longer/different process than we do here in Canada. I filled out a form on line, had a phone consult with the Dr. and got my surgery booked all in the same day. I got my package 5 days later with all my info. I started those awful shakes 3 days ago and have lost 7 lbs already. I hate those shakes. Surgery date is July 29th

aaaaahhh, that makes sense to me now - My insurance doesn't cover lapband here in Canada so I am paying out of pocket so there wouldn't be any approval.

Congratulations! Remember getting the band is the first step only. Then it's how to live with the band/eat differently/change your habits to support being healthy and active! You can do this!!! Congrats!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
