:rofl::w00t:I am new to posting threads on lapbandtalk.com but I have been reading the many stories and experiences that each person has to offer. I received the best news that I could hear yesterday 8/12/08. I was approved for surgery!!! My ride has not been that difficult with the insurance (Horizon BCBS NJ) but it was very nerve wrecking to say the least.

I was doing the diet program on my own when I had my first seminar. So I completed 6 months in February 2008.

June 28 - Seminar done

July 25 - Consult with Dr. Paul Guske @ The Kane Center in Arlington Heights, Illinois :rofl:

July 19 - Sleep Study completed :rofl:

July 29 - Psych Evaluation completed :rofl:

July 29 - submitted 6 MONTH diet and all other paperwork to insurance.

August 12- received a phone call that my insurance APPROVED :rofl: MY SURGERY!!!!

Now awaiting my surgery date!!! Which should be between 9/8-9/19

which is not that far away!!! I can't wait!!! I am so estatic!!! :rofl::rofl::thumbup:

I am so ready to finally be happy. I know this is going to be hard work but I m determined and I WILL SUCCEED WITH FLYING COLORS!!!! :rofl: :crying:

September Superstars :rofl::rofl:
