So I've been thinking all week about this lapband thing. I've really psyched myself out! I'm going to the initial information session on Wednesday, May 12. I'm required to go to this information session before the surgeon will have a consult with me. Once I have my consult, I can start workng on the stuff I need to do to get my approval. It's a three month multi-disiplinary process I have to go through before the surgery. I'm so READY to get this process started! I'm 115 pounds over weight for a normal BMI. My husband doesn't want me to loose that much. I'm just ready to get started and see this through... I guess the journey starts here. My initial thoughts...I hope this show lasts! :smile:
I'm so excited! I'm going to the weight loss seminar this evening at 5pm! I've already made up my mind that I want to do the surgery. I wish I could just skip all the preliminary steps and have the surgery tomorrow! :tongue_smilie:I'm so anxious to start this process. It's all I seem to think about. I even dream about it! I wonder how long it's going to take to schedule my initial consult with the surgeon???? If everything goes according to my plans, I'm hoping to have the surgery scheduled in September. That whole 3 month evaluation for insurance thing sucks!!! But, whatever it takes!!:smile:
