:smile:Hello bandsters, i hope to be where you are soon. i got my third visit with dietitian, 3 more to submit forms for approval, this is a long and tedious process, did anyone else have such a long journey to bandland. I am new to forum please share your thoughts and opinions. Thanks.

Welcome Vanglo23!

My sister and I started the process together on 11/4. I have CAREFIRST she has KAISER. I was banded on 2/6, because Carefirst would allow outside diets to count as the six months. My sister in going to her third visit with the dietician this week. She sometimes finds the wait depressing, because there are so many additional processes to go through. She is crossing her fingers to be banded by May or June.

Keep your eye on the prize, six months isn't a long wait compared to the benefit of being banded.

Good Luck with your journey, and welcome to the forum.
