So Friday the 3rd of October is finally my last day of my 6 month supervised diet. I am so exicited. I will be weighed and then on Monday the 6th all of my paperwork will be faxed into the insurance and then I wait for approval. I was told approval would most likely take a week, then I can make my appts for the preop diet, surgeon. At the surgeon appt I get the EGD appt and surgery appt. So sometime in the next few weeks I'll have an official date for my banding and will be starting preop! I have lost 26.5 lbs so far...hope to have lost more on Friday. On my 2 week preop diet I will be having a protein shake for breakfast and lunch and lean meat and veggies for dinner. I have to lose at least 5 lbs on it. Don't think it should be too much of a problem. The estimated date is November 3rd or November 10th. We will see though! I know it's November! The time has been flying by and now that it's almost here everything seems to be going so slow. I am ready to be a bandster!!! Froggi is ready for Bandland!:thumbdown:

Good for you, froggi!!! It's hard to believe you're almost there.

I was in P-burg a few weeks ago, and saw a billboard ad for lap band surgery at Camden Clark, and I thought about you and how far you've come. Keep up the good work!!!
