I got the news yesterday from the insurance company that i was approved!!! Now i'm waiting on the surgeons office to call with my surgery date.

Fantastic! Let us know the date when you find out. Good luck!

I'm happy for you, everything is going to go great. Keep us posted.

Good for you!!!

If you are like me I heard yesterday and it is a load off my mind. 6 months of work finally paid off. My date is April 14 and I am so ready....:tt1:

That is such great news! I was banded on 10 Feb 2009 and would not change anything. I hated waiting for the first fill, but now I have that and have lost 36 pounds since 22 Dec. This is the best thing I have done for me and I know you will be just so happy too. Please keep us posted!

Congratulations, a long wait now over and you are on your way to a new lifestyle and new you. Best wishes from Tucson

Congrats on the approval. I will cross my fingers that they get you in asap :thumbup:
