I am so excited now. I have have been to all the required pre-op visits. Set some goals and now I have started the All Liquid Diet today. I was on the scale today to see what I weighed at this point. It was a scary sight of 254 lbs. I have the support of my husband and children along with lots of friends and family. I am just so excited it is getting closer. I am being banded on 7-22-10 in Norwood MA by Dr Adam Glasgow. :rolleyes2:

Today was a great not only because it was Stephanies (my neice)Birthday but it is the beginning of my Banding journery. I went to see Dr. Adam Glasgow. He is great. I weighed in at 253 lbs and and 5'7" so that makes my BMI right at 40. Dr Glasgow said that I am heathy enough to have to surgery. I just have to do the normal stuff like the Sleep Study, see the Nutrionist and a physcologist. I have my appoitment for the Nutrionist on May 11th. I called BCBS and they said that they do cover all visits as long as the provider is in their network. This was great news.
