Hello, LBT I have finally submitted my documents to my insurance company. So the wait begins. I have been on this site for awhile and have read many many posts. I would like to thank you all for your honesty and success stories. I have started a blog and would love for you guys to join me on my journey.

Thanks again and I promise to be more verbal from here on out.:thumbup:

Good luck and hopefully you will have a surgery date soon! I was banded on 09/24 and am doing great so far! Keep us posted on any changes.

I just got the call. I AM APPROVED!!! Now i am waiting on my surgery date. This is going pretty well if i may say so myself

If you don't mind me asking.... What documents did you have to submit?... I am afraid of this part, because the only diet I have really paid any money for, was nutri-system. and I don't even have any proof of being on it. I know I will have to send in a letter from the physician, but other than that, what can I expect?... and CONGRATS!!!! i know you're excited. I can't wait till I get to that stage. :thumbup:

Hi Realtruelady,

I have just started on this site and am finding it very helpful for me altho there do not seem to be anyone that is in my local area... Good thing, I guess, since I intend to not tell anyone that does not really need to know. I have had all my apointments and the Dr has written to the insurance company. I am playing the waiting game now. I am praying for a quick acceptance and then a surgery date. :thumbup:

Can you tell me how you got your dates and the ticker thing on your profile? I would like to add mine and have been struggling with it. :tt2:

Today I recived my surgery date and can't stop smiling.

As for the paper work submitted, it consisted of my psych evaluation and medical records. I also believe the surgeons office completed a form.

As for the signature block, go to the user cp and click edit signature block. The weightloss ticker is another website which you can click on my block. You just copy the bb code in to the text box.
